First Thing I Called Into TukCom,

even thought the place had just opened bikes were already double parked,


 I was still looking at underwater housings,

 on my way home I also had to call into the fish and cheep shop,

 I had a quick look around as I was there,

 but strangely enough no new stock since our last visit,

 sinking one of these concrete rings into the ground is a great way to make an inexpensive pool in a small garden,


although they did not have any different freshwater fish since our visit there were a number of new saltwater fish,

 Diana loves the saltwater fish as they are so attractive,

 for me a last look along the rows of freshwater fish,

 then home to dose the aquarium,

 the fish had contracted a disease called white spot (Ichthyophthirius multifilis), it is a parasitic infection,

 so in with the Malachite green, the good news is that all should be well in a couple of days, which is when the water will also return from it's now green colour,

10 cap fulls should be enough for the 600 litres the aquarium holds, after our evening meal we watched the latest episode of The Chase, two knowledgeable contestants walking away with £20,000 each, we followed that by the latest from Ade in Britain a couple from Columbo and Cheers, then for us we were off to bed.
