Hello Romi,

i guess it is in my genes. My father was a veterinary and i got in contact with animals very soon. We had a ranch with lots of animals. When i was 5 i went fishing and it was exciting to catch fish...i never eat them ..i put them in the aquarium and looked at them for hours. i could spend 4-5 hours just looking at them. Parallel i started to make music with 6 or 7. The good thing while i was touring with my bands i always could escape of the tour for a couple of hours to check the area around. I did that during tours in the USA,Mexico,Australia,and Southamerica. During the day while the others spend time in Hotels and in pools i rented a car and went collecting and photograph habitats . My Band thought that i am a bit strange going to look at rivers and lakes. Sometimes i had a little Aquarium on tour with me.

Cheers
Chris

Ah, how small things like that change our lives. ... your reply reminds me of that line: The biggest adventure you can ever take is to live the life of your dreams. Hope India is the site of an exciting discovery for you, and soon

I quite often chat with him on facebook..guess I now know how that tri-snail picture was taken..

can we also know about the secret

[ChrisLukhaup]

ishaan,in fact it was a mix of luck and luck
I took these 3 snails from another tank and put them in my phototank ...right after that they started to move and the lucky thing was that they fell all three on the same rock...so when they started crawling it just happend that they made this little pyramid.this will probably not happen in a normal tank...
different with shrimps – this you have to prepare.
Cheers
Chris
