Looks nice Rapleyr . Just out of interest, why did you go straight across the top of the window with the C24 this time rather than the 'infinity' style you had with the window before?

Great shout with the green tench Fred. Like the look of them! I also like rudd, they remind me of the tinfoil barbs I've kept in the past in my tropical tank.
