A Trip To Deer Park!
As everyone probably well and truly knows by now, I was invited for a lovely evening at Dave's on Friday last week and holy smokes was it a wonderful date night!!! One of the most colourful deliveries of acro's I've seen in a while!!
The pictures are a little over-saturated as it's my first time using RAW and Lightroom to edit but I think I did pretty well aside from that :)
Most shops have an "acro tank" but no one has "the acro tank" like Daves when it's freshly filled!
Just look at that bloody rainbow of colour through the tank...
But I mean what good is an overall picture when there's no sneaky looks at the gems that came in!
Just your average sub-$100 piece of SSC
Blue tips anyone?
Some glowy goodness..
Some boring scoly flubber for those that are twisted that way!
Now I bet you're all wondering what I got with such an amazing level of stock in... well I originally went in with the intention of not getting anything but some AF top ups as I'm holding off for my elusive Lennardi to come in but when I got there, Dave... , well Dave decided that my willpower was far to strong and decided to have some of the smallest and most beautiful Purple Queen Anthias (pseudanthias pascalus not p. tuka though) I've seen in a looonnngggg time!! Well needless to say that, depending on how they go I'm hopefully going to be able to work towards keeping half a dozen long term!! :D I suppose I really am a sucker for punishment when it comes to fish... lol
There was another piece that tempted me but I didn't have budget or tank space to allow for it! Pretty goddamn gorgeous if you ask me!
