It's fixed now.

Well, all I can say is that the various species of Corydoras I've collected in the wild none were living on pea gravel. Or, for that matter, were there very many plants around (in the water) there were plenty shading it. Having said that I have found them living over rock chip gravel so sharp I coul...

Coryman, sorry but i have to comment, it is not like the cross breeding was done on purpose, if you didnt know- things like this sometimes happen, people cant be as perfect as you, sorry, you seem to jump down peoples throats, you must know everything! hence the name 'coryman', i think sometimes yo...

I would avoid C. adolfoi unless you are buying tank raised ones acclimatized to neutral pH. Wild ones will not enjoy the experience. C. trilineatus (what you are calling C. julii) are a good bet, and maybe 10 would be really good in your tank. Maybe a few less if you go for C. sterbai as they are a ...

I don't think it would be too hard to put a link to the chatroom in the forum link cluster and put (at the bottom of the posts) whos in the chatroom. To be honest though, I'm not all that fussed about chatroom use.

You'd be surprised the hours us cats keep.

Try a search on or look up Corydoras paleatus, this is a very common on fish and it is more likely to be what you have, especially if "cambs" = Cambridgeshire.

Synodontis serpentis did cross my mind as I looked tat the photo in Sand's book. The extremely rugose head kinda threw me off, though. Is this something that could develop with age? Also, the pics I ID'ed as <I>S. serpentis</I> on PC are of a just slightly more elongate fish but its one of those th...

Yes, some plecos eat from the outside in and others from the inside out. The skin is often eaten and I find it helps keep the food together as the fish work on it.

Another fish which this can be sold as is <I>S. serpentis</I>.

Would it not be possible to use the http://www.milonic.co.uk/ one as a floating horizontal menu? It's not floating, it's static, so how you make it float? Anyway, as far as I can see it won't work over two vertical frames such as those we use in the cat-elog. One frame is fine as you can specify th...

Still doesn't work, it won't render over two frames.

I think the floating menu is the way forward, but I haven't found a horizontal cross platform implementation of it.

Corydoras elegans.

I will add this and Rusty's subsequent reply to the FAQ.

Jools

Just a reminder on for m on how to do this. Just add to this topic if anyone sees a need to add another acronym.

[/code]

Yes, a few months ago we were calling it a <I>Cochliodon</I>.

Jools

Probably around 200mm SL. That said, I have not seen one that big, it's just a guess based on other similar species.

Jools

Doesn't bombero mean fireman?

L229. The golden (or yellow) triangle between the eyes to the tip of the snout is characteristic of this Peruvian <I>Hypostomus</I>. I have kept these guys and they are real veggie lovers.

Try this generator, once you have it you can play with the variables. http://host-biz.com/flashdropdown.html Also nice, but this appears to be a vertical menu I don't think it does menu sub options - which we need lots of!

Planet Catfish? Politically correct? Personal computer? What does it stand for?

The short term for Planet Catfish is Planet! For example, "Everyone at Planet likes keeping fish".

No, of course not! Your php code is still there.

Changes can always be made. :-) Just we don't always make them. I have tweaked this a bit now so it now shows itself within an iframe tag. Various reasons for doing this not least that anyone can take the following HTML and use it anywhere on their site. <IFRAME SRC="http://www.planetcatfish.co...

Ah, nice but it scrolls off the page as you read down. I think we want something that stays at the top even if you do scroll down?

Jools

All,

Well, it's open season on acronyms and the like. Any suggestions on ones to add?

Rusty,

Do you need me to change the CSS or can you do it (maybe "planet green" rather than "planet purple"?)

Jools

I thought it was the other way around. The snouts are not acute enough to be C. delphax and they should be C. melanistius instead. Yes, I meant not "snouty" enough. Also, we should consider than more than one species might be present. The fish in the middle left of the picture looks like ...
