Otocinclus and a Few Shrimp
First of all I want to say that I did not take these pictures. They were taken by a friend of mine who doesn't believe that her tank merits (nor does she wish) critical acclaim. Please don't let that stop you from giving her a big hand for being a wicked photographer/aquascaper. She doesn't wish her name to be published but if you like the pics, just respond with a big, "OMG Donna, those pics are incredible!!!"

















And if the fish and shrimp pics aren't adorable enough, here's a shot of her new love-hog (7-8 month-old) German shepherd 'Angus,' also known as "Poodle."



She'll probably kill me for posting these, but she's such an excellent photographer that I couldn't resist. I know you'll like them

Great pictures and I love the pooch

I'm sure Donna thanks you guys for your wonderful comments but she is not much of a forum gal. I sent her a link to this thread so I can only hope she's read all of the compliments. She truly deserves them
