I'l love a fish tank at work [mention]NeilM[/mention], unfortunately we are not allowed (same with live plants) as we do scientific research and cannot risk contamination :cry:


Axolotls have been known to grow up to 14", although between 9 and 12" is average.


Argonians are the lizard people of the Elder Scrolls game series. They can have Jel based names (their language) but frequently have names like Runs-In-Circles or Stays-In-Shadows. So you can end up with some funny sounding names :lol:

Does it function as intended? Might get one for my desk at work if so :mrgreen:

 

No. We are all still stress heads :lol:

 

Imagine how bad it’d be without the fish :shock: :D

 

Whoever has met me in person on here knows I am the calmest of individuals :lol:

A proper little snowflake I am :thumb:

Who are these companies that come and service fish tanks once a week, I want one!

 

You rent the entire system and the service contract is included.

I don't think it's cheap by any means.


I must say tho that the lad who comes and does his stuff once a week is one happy chap....

I can imagine it’s quite a few £££ but worth a little look [mention]Arwen[/mention] has made me miss my fish tank.

Mr Slowly would probably freak a bit though, 4 dogs and 5 rabbits is enough extra to deal with.

We don't know what sex it is, and won't untill it's around 8-12mths old.

So we wanted a name that would suit either.


Stevie Nicks or Stevie Ray Vaughan for example :roll: :lol:
