Unknown fish Juvenile

I have not been able to ID this little fish that I collected with the mysids yet. I will feed it with Artemia. Any suggestions greatly received.

British Native marine update.

I have collected some new animals for my fish tank. Lots of top shells (Gibbula spp.) to keep the algae under control and some more weed and mysids.

Bickerton reborn! Bickerton portables

There is a new website http://www.bickertonportables.co.uk/ featuring some new 40th anniversary Bickerton bikes and some archive material about the original Bickerton. The new bikes look like they are following the Dahon type design but it will be interesting to see what they actually look like. Not as cool as the original I'm sure.
