Ok Bovinet & mpp....let's get this out of the way right now. I'm an idiot. And so you don't have to----------> Rolling Eyes

Anyway...as you all know, I've ceased breeding all fish because of time. I've cut back to two tanks for the same reason. And in an effort to save more time, I made my 150 an Oscar & Severum tank.

I have a very cool young (6") albino tiger oscar named Chowder who is very cool...and a nice 3" green severum in with him. They get along fine. Both beautiful fish & neither would be going anywhere if I had the time or space for another tank.

The thing is...I can't shake the Discus bug. I put two in my 55...and as soon as I can find a good home for the oscar & green severum, the 150 will agian (and permanently) become a Discus tank.

So...free to a good home (someone who will take care of them - and has a tank capable of housing them at their adult sizes (12" and 8"). I probably will craigslist them if someone I know doesn't speak up....but I'd much rather hand them over to someone I know will baby them like I do. They're beautiful & very cool fish.

Let me know.

I would do it for the cost of shippin if you want me to...but would enlist some professional help this time. I still feel bad about the cories.

I've got room for the Oscar. I have aquired 2 more since last talking with you. This one will help even out the Albinos to be a little closer.

Tigers 3
Albinos 2

Mike

It's entirely up to you Gary. If the sev doesn't go to a good home before you are ready to introduce discus, then give me a call. We can figure something out.

Oh - I forgot about Clunkster.

No mate i know damn well that you will have given it a lot of thought of parting with these fish especially "Chowder". I hate it when you are left with this as the only option Drogar-Cry(LBG)
