:Applaud: Congrats Pam!

I was mid-way through a cup of morning joe when viewing your pic,
and while able to avoid a "spit-take", I wasn't fortunate enough to
keep it from going down the wrong tube.:twitcy: Awesome shot.:yes:

And thanks to all involved for another great contest.:smile:

Thanks Jay for providing the Aquarium Care of Livebearers by Ted Dengler Coletti, Ph.D.


Thanks Mel for the American Livebearer Assocication 2008 Convention May-June Issue 201

I have been picking up the odd book lately for this hobby, so this will add to my little library.




Thanks to the other participants, your photos were great.


Namor thanks very much, hope you are okay. I would love to see more pics of binky.

You're welcome. I hope you enjoy them. If you enter our Anniversary Contest you might even get to add another book to your 'fish-y' library.
:secret: I've already told everybody about the prize of the Baench Aquarium Atlas but I'll let you in on a secret. There will be other book prizes as well other neat prizes (like a gift certificate, and food for your fishies, etc... and lots of ways to enter).
