Default noirsphynx's 10g//UPDATED PICS PAGE 8

This tank is going to remain very basic as I'm fairly new to the hobby. This is more about the fun of it. I'm going to try a mushroom themed tank.

That was a funny......right?

You wouldn't believe how many people don't know there's cats born bald. Sometimes it's quite funny trying to convice them. I once had a solicitor knock at my door(I wasn't home) and Rocko just happened to be sitting in the window. I heard later from several neighbours that this guy would say "did you know your neighbour shaves their cat" Every one of them told him different but he refused to believe it. Still makes me laugh.

Yeah, I have seen those cats before...some of the reefmembers have them...still a strange sight though...sort of like the hairless dogs..
something you don't see everyday.

It's a secret until I know if I can get him or not. I have all the LFS looking for one and so far I haven't heard back from any I'm so very hopeful though. I have 6 months to find one and hopefully it won't blow too much of my budget.

Oh well......maybe I can tell......it's a Gumdrop Coral Croucher I'm in love with the little cuties. Maybe someone out there knows where I can get one, even if I have to have him shipped here. If that happens then I'll post to see if there's any interest in a group order from wherever I can find him. So what does everyone think....cute or what?
