Paint Requried to Decorate!
Monday, April 16th, 2007Lounge, Stairwell and Landing Decoration (Before)
Monday, April 16th, 2007Since we moved in last August 2006 after having the damp course fixed, we’ve been waiting for the walls to dry out, before we could decorate. A decorator has been found, and we’ve decided to have all the walls lined in the lounge, stairwell and landing, and then painted with antic white paint. (almost white but not quite). Esther’s booked into the cattery, and we are off to Plymouth for 10 days, whilst the decorator is in residence. Here are some photos before:-

Another stealth mission…
Friday, April 13th, 2007I picked up six new tanks for the fish house this evening, six 30x12x15inch tanks, these will be used for breeding only. Pictures to follow. It’s going to take me a few weeks, to install them in the fish house.
RSS Feed!
Friday, April 13th, 2007I’ve fixed the RSS Feed for this blog…!
So if you have a RSS reader, you can now subscribe to this blog, and it will work…!
RSS Feed Fixed again…
Friday, April 13th, 2007RSS Feed Fixed again.
If you don’t know what an RSS feed is, Google for it, get an RSS Reader, and subscribe to the blog. That way when I post a new blog posting, you’ll get it automatically in you Inbox or in your RSS software program.
RSS Feed busted again …
Friday, April 13th, 2007The RSS Feed is currently broke, I fixed an earlier fault, where the blog wouldn’t display more than 100 pictures, this was resolved, but I didn’t realize the code that fixed the 100 picture fault, has broken RSS feeds, so it’s pictures or RSS feed.
So for the time being RSS Feed is OFF (broke!), until fixed!
Nannacara adoketa pictures
Thursday, April 12th, 2007The Nannacara adoketa are settling in very well, feeding on Tetra Prima, Bloodworm and Diskusin, I’ve not moved them yet from their quarantine tanks. I’ll do this over the next couple of weeks, and will remove the possible pair to a setup, with sandy bottom and old leaves.
Possibly Female?
Not happy!
Younger Nannacara adoketa at the bottom.
Possibly Male?
Male Ancistrus
Thursday, April 12th, 2007If you’ve come via a bookmark or RSS Newsreader “thru’ the backdoor”, you will not have noticed that I’ve changed the image on the Home Page.
It’s given me an opportunity to try out a new digital camera, the “boss” doesn’t read the blog, so she’ll never know, unless you tell her, and I’ll know!
I’ve still got a Digital SLR, which gives great results, but a decent Canon macro lens and flash is very expensive for such a camera, and you can get good macro fucntions in smaller compact Digital Cameras, you can also get closer to the glass with a compact Digital Cameras – this one was a bargain!
So here’s the first picture I took with the new camera, which is also featured on the home page, if you missed it, here it is again.
Male Ancistrus sp. Bristlenose catfish to most of us fishkeepers, this one is rather special because it doesn’t have the usual colouration as most common, it is almost black with white spots, and it will not breed with any of the common females!
New Gearbox .. Ouch!
Wednesday, April 11th, 2007Oh and just when I thought I was flush with money this month, the gearbox in the Yellow Peril broke, it’s not been happy selecting 2nd Gear for over 12 months, and then it stopped going into 2nd Gear!
New gearbox required!
If you look carefully, the new silver thing is the new shiny gearbox! Hope this one does 157,000 miles!
Spring’s Warming Up..
Wednesday, April 11th, 2007Since, I’ve put all the insulation in the fish house, it’s warming up nicely now at a constant room temperature of 26 degrees C. I’ll need to put an air conditioning unit in there soon, if it becomes too hot.
