Hiya
Quite a few months ago, i bought my wife a small marine aquaruim and housed it with two shripms and the obligatory clown fish (NEMO!!!) as well as a couple of smaller fish. Everything was going fine for the past few months until our area started having severve power cuts. Two weeks ago, all her fish died in the tank!!:waterwork :waterwork
So, yesterday, the wind was blowing at 30knts plus, with rain pelting down. Sea is too rough to go out in, wind is too strong to go fishing. I suggested to my wife that at the next spring tide, we can go catch some small fish in the tidal pools on low tide. STUPID MISTAKE!!! Wife MAKES me take her to the beach!! We stop at a local shop at the beach and buy two small nets that the kid's use!! rofl
So we end up knee deep in the rock pools, being drenched in the rain and howling wind, catching little shrimps and rock fish!!! Since our water is much colder than the tropical waters clowns live in, i reckoned these fish will be able to survive in the tank with-out the need of a heater. Well, so far so good!!
Now, whilst spearing, i've often seen beautifully coloured small fish, maybe 5cm MAXIMUM in size. Any idea's on how to capture a few for the aquaruim??
