thta very sweet, but it looks i might have find a place who supplied
university, labs, schools etc...who MIGHT be able to help.
they have greatdiving beetle, but deads ones! but the guy i spoke too, is
going on a hunting trip, in two weeks and say he will try to catch as many
as he can for me, they don`t come cheap, but if if he can getme some alive i
don`t care, + the greatneew is might be able to get me some eels too.
i am working on a freshwater tank/pond, which i would like to self maintain,
like a small eco systmen, i have laready nearly acheived this with my tank
fills with newts, frogs, as i am in the process to get some blackworms,
which i am told breed very fast, which is what i need inside my substrate
and then this, shall provide already one source of food, but hen gain, i
will need to find more creepy thing to adds ike this, to balance the all
things, not sure if all this make sense, but one of my big hobbies/studies
apssion.
anyway, the offers is still here if anyones in england lknows of a place who
sell live eels/great diving beetle pls let me knows,
cheers and thank u
