So after collecting sks and the non present Tom we headed out to mainden head, a journey that was longer than it should have been, you guessed it. we got lost!
After a call to Dan and Sam who came out to find us we found our way to St Albans Maidenhead Aquatics, the fish selection was good, Galaxies and motoro rays being particular favourites of mine (Garuf by the way). There was also Altums, a highly topical fish that unfortunately there small size of tank meant they where very timid.
the plant selecton is good but the choice avaiable was poor, bolbitis was the highlight but that was in terrible condition. As well was a bristling seection of submerged house plants.
Aside from the fish the tank selecton was good briliant infact but only if you have enough room to satisfy the multiple tank syndrome. Had a look at the hagen glo luminaires, terrible build quality.
After a breif chat the time came to bundle into cars and head over to wildwoods... where we lost Sam .
On arriving at wildwoods I noticed wood and went in search, everything was too big for my 11" cube, Defeated! My attention then turned to the ENOURMOUS malawi tank that dominates the enterance to the fish rooms. The selection was good but odd ball based, electric eels where the fish of choice this time as where some realy nice Betta Splenda's which Dan proceeded to snap up for the princely sum of £8.50.
I should mention by this point sam caught up after getting his wife to tell him the post code for his sat nav, of the mirth!
at this point I wil turn to my camera and review my pictures and see if any are any good and will follow this ong winded post with some pictures and the following part of the london essex adventure.
