They are scaled down to the 1mb and GOY says up to 5mb.
Sometimes my photos are scaled down to well under 1mb.
I keep trying. THIS problem is all new and others are getting the same message from GOY.

Those are Rainbowfish,Melanotaenia boesemani, origins are New Guinea clear lakes and streams. These are not wild fish. Peaceful,active easy to keep..they need a large aquarium. This one you only see half,its a total of 240 gallon or 920 liters. I've had it since the 1980's. I got back in the hobby going on four years ago in May. I did fishkeeping since the 70's and once was asked to go for a job as an aquarist at Steinhart Aquarium by the lead aquarist there. I was already working for a Museum taking care of aquatic live animals..fish,insects. Back in the mid 90's.

That's ...something. A photo of part of my aquarium loaded. I wonder if GOY has reached some limit on hosting photos and it takes people deleting accounts for new photos to go through? All a guess.
