16.5 [img]smile.gif[/img] ( I like to take my age and divide it by two. [img]smile.gif[/img] ) Tho I am walking the fine line of a wine hang over. :eek:

Had Ostrich for dinner last night. Went to a cool restaraunt on Robson last night for the old Bday. Owned by a South African couple. What a place.

Did ya do some shopping at J&L?

Steve, I was just wondering who Bead is? :D

Ahhhhhh.. Don't feel a day over...

Oh ya, ostrich.. awesome stuff. My brother worked at an ostrich farm here on the island as a weekend promotional type chef, cooking it up for folks to try.

It is sooo good, pricey but good.

If you have never tried it you would not belive how it tastes.

Ahhhhhh.. Don't feel a day over...

I bought the longfin(Pseudochromis polynemus)

Very similar to the Splendid Dottyback. I found out they are actually sold interchangeably by some stores.

Here is the best pic I can find. I'd post one but its still kinda shy. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Longfin Dottyback

Very very cool fish. I have been waiting for ages to get a dottyback like this.

There are some very very nice fish in at J&L right now.

Here's a neat little quote about dottybacks I just found. :D

Quote:

If ever there was a collector, distributor and retailers combination dream AND nightmare group it's got to be the Dotty backs. They are extremely territorial amongst themselves and can be living terrors if mixed with fishes they don't care for.

The dream part comes from Dottyback shipping mortalities; virtually none. The "Elm Street" portion is finding enough cubicles, containers to individually cordone them off. Their interaction with each other reminds me of freshwater male Bettas, Betta splendens. The big difference is that Dottybacks have large canine teeth and no long flowing fins to slow them down. A large proportion of these fishes are lost by the business from "jumping" out of the system entirely or in with each other.

You HAVE to come over and see the teeth on this thing. It is not afraid of me either. When I look at it through the glass it stares right back at me and gets as close as possible.
