found the link

so its "free adoption" as to "cost money adoption"

its either

(a) a scam

or

(b) an advert placed by a person under the age of 10

or

(c) an advert placed by someone with learning difficulties (not me!) which is cool, some of my best friends are spastics so i dont have a problem with it

Anyway whos got any plastic tank plants they want to give me..
03-06-2007
21:52 by Jim Son
plastic plants? no point Stevens, you can get real ones for much cheaper and if its fish eating them you worried about then go for Java Fern it also doesnt matter if fish pull Java Fern out its route, still grows

why do you want plastic?

altho in fairness you can get some pretty nice ones, but only go plastic as a complete last resort like for Oscars or summat

Jim Son I have fish that eat Java Fern so I have to use fake plants.

Distichodus affinis and a heros notatus continually rip through plants including Java fern.

Hi, Thanks for the mail. I and my family are also very happy that sooner or later some of my cute and lovely tropical fish will be moving into a very loving and caring home where they are goin to be spoiled with much love and care. while hopping that you are going to keep to your words and do just as you have promissed cos all I want for them is much love and care, and that explain why i do not feel confortable in selling them. But what still Boarders me is Whether you have any experience in keeping any fish of this species.
I rescently relocated in Dublin due to the rescent changes in the internal constitution of my company that resulted in my transfer from manchester to Dublin, so where are you located so I was wondering if you could come and pick them so i do not mine if you could come and pick them up if you are not far from here. But however, if you are a little bit far and you think that is going to inconvineint you if you have to come over to Dublin, then i think will have to make arrangements to fly them over to your home. All of them are still available, ey are of various sexes. i do have over 17 of them.Just take a closse look of their pics and you will see exactly what we are talking about here.hope you will really enjoy them and have anice time with them. So you could still get any of your desire, if you do assure me that you will take good care of them. So how may of them will you like to rehome for me ???. i hope to read from you once more.Do have a nice day and may God bless you.
Thanks,
Jessika
