had to go there didn't ya den........

i noticed someone tried to stirr u on your fry food post ,, it was deleted in minuites ,hows that for double standards *sarcasm*

[JWin]

Den, I understand your point and your frustration but I am afraid there's nothing I can do about it.
I have nothing against you personally either but deleting pics or post is up to the mods not me.
I am not gonna sit here and say please delete these pecock pics cuz Den doesn't seem to be too happy seeing them.



Cheers
Jack.

Do u use colour hormone??? i seem to have the same collection guessing some of those are peacocks and mine dont seem to be finding the colour...

[JWin]

I feed them a small quantity of aqua one pellets three times a week along with their normal NLS 1mm pellets
which they get everyday.
Some of the colour comes from the camera as well I think cuz some fish in there especially the dragon blood doesn't look that red in real life. It has something to do with the camera. May be Daz can explain more about that.

Hey Jack

Could be a few things. The pic's contrast is a tad high as well as the colour saturation from the use of flashes. The other thing will be some of the blue tones in the pic have been lessened to counter either the blue light from one of your lights or the camera getting the white balance wrong, the side-effect if brighter reds.


Daz

[JWin]

Yeah Daz, it could be the blue light causing some colour saturation when combined with the flash.
By the way your spilo is going great in the display tank but the fusco is still in the process of "fattening up".

Great shots and nice fish mate, the red empress looks mint.

Btw those rocks must be heavy....are they just stacked?

[JWin]

Thanks Tim, that's about the sharpest I can go with my camera.
The two big rocks are about 25kg each hahaha, just kidding they are just fake rocks.
It's only the three pieces under that are real.


Cheers

Well they had me fooled did you make them yourself or buy them? Where and how much?
Beats the risk of having heavy rocks in there....
