Hi scoobysti, how do we contact you about the fish and where in the UK are you? Many thanks.

Err the one with the red at the start of it's dorsal fin, RHS of bowl as we look, is NOT a Tancho Sanke but a Marutan Sanke. To be a Tancho it mut ONLY have red in one discrete area on the top of it's head. Additional red elsewhere makes it either marutan or plain sanke.Just my understanding of the classifications. The one in the middle looks like it has brilliant even sumi markings down it's back and a nice discrete red hi on hte head.

Nope according tp waleby Aquatics it is a kin kikikuryo.

doitsu kujaku?

Thanks Roy, I overlook the parkland to a grade 1 listed Georgian Manor House The most they ever do is grass sheep in the parkland.

a lovely picture Steve

Ahat a beauty.

I have a similar problem with my nexus 200 waste valve. If you don't get it seating right, you can lose a lot of water. I remember the first time it happened, i must have lost 500 litres approx overnight. Was not impressed much. It's still a bit iffy now if i don't get it right.

Yep Shoreham Fibreglass. Complete unit excluding Eazy pod was @ £650-00 delivered. That includes pump, 11W UV fluid bed filter and all the flocor and Jap Mat in filter. Have to say I am very impressed with the quality of their goods. Have to run it a year or so to see how it performs long term.

The waste valve used to empty the pod after purging the K1.

When we looked inside the white seal was damaged. This was letting water past the valve. This has now been replaced by EA.
