...was jump on a train - well several actually & go & visit BAS (Bolton) & Pier (Wigan).

My apologies that i can't remember everything i saw but was a late-ish decision to go but some of the bits & pieces were...

Synodontis Batesii
Syno Rebeli
Cephalocassis Jatia
Asterophysus (large)
Amblyceps (foratum?)
Microsynodontis polli (although there were other species of microsynodontis in the tank too)
Also a couple of ones not labelled that i couldn't identify (pims & ariidae?)along with loads of cories, loricarids,hyalobagrus, chaca, chandarama.

If you're in the area i'm sure there is something for everyone :D

I have fish store envy. My big excitement last week was finding a trio of Pelvicachromis subocellatus amongst a shipment of kribs. Second was finding Lamp. brichardi fry from a group that Catfishluva pawned off on (I mean kindly gave) me.
After last year's 40 year record low for summer rainfall, this year we seem to be having a 100 year high. The rain is not helping me get out collecting.
