Everyone uses that excuse but we don't care :lol:
It is absurd to talk of one animal being higher than another. We consider those, when the cerebral structure/intellectual faculties most developed, as highest. A bee doubtless would when the instincts were.

Looks great!

I really like the scape in the 1.5, and the ten seems to be coming along nicely. (:

Can't wait to see your DPs.

thank you!

i figured out how to get good fish pics!!! you take your off body flash, with a tether, and open the hood and hold the flash over the top of the tank so it shines in the water. they look great! i am editing them now, but will post pics when im done
