spoon Posted November 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 dont think they were meant to be that cheap but the 1st 5 were sold to me at that price so they ended up selling me the rest at that price too which was very good of them there are no more and i dont know if they will be getting anemore they had been in the shop for a while and no 1 noticed them(they are bout 8mm long) some staff didnt even know they were there(mind you they was no label either) i have no idea what they would normally go for ive never seen them before got told the were brackish but would do fine in freshwater wasnt till i got home that i had ane idea what they really were Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spoon Posted November 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 wow whats that plastic grass in goldfish tank. where you get it from? i brought it second hand from a pet shop i think its similar to the aqua1 ones you can get just older they come in sheets of about 40cm sq and u can cut it up how you want it. the branches are willow scrubbed clean off lichen half pie hoping it mite contine to grow and sprout leaves in there as apart from mangrove(very hard to find down here) willow is the only thing i can think of that mite handle some salt as it grows along riverbanks close to the sea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
