Hi Suzy
Great to see you got to observe some of the New Piscids !
I found them to be the same as you saw, bright & short .
It was amazing to see 3 Meteor showers at once. The Geminids, Hydrids & The new kid on the block "The Piscids"

Fortunately I knew about them before we started to observe the Geminids. We were laying down on the ground but my head was going in all different direction from both showers and I had to end up giving this one away. I didn't know it finished at 11 tho or that it was coming from Pisces, so that actually makes sense why I eventually gave up looking that way, cause there was nothing happening!
From between 10pm to 11pm I saw 5.
They were very short and very quick. I didn't see any long tails. It was very easy to see the difference between the two showers.
