Wow. What a day. I re-set up my 150 show as a discus tank.

Here is the new crew...

Acclimating

This isn't the best pic...but this Leopard Snakeskin is AMAZING. Show quality for sure. Those of you who know me need to stop by to see this guy.

Now the whole group starting with the top left guy (facing left) and working around clockwise... Brilliant Blue (some call it a blue cobalt), Red Dragon, Melon, Blue Turq, Leopard Snakeskin, and Blue Diamond.

Oh...and I was given an outstanding deal on this L264

I'm sooo glad to have Discus back in the house. Many many many more pics when they settle in and color up better.

I lucked out & tacked them on to a friends internet order last minute. Not bad, huh?

Nah, not at all. Looking very good. What are their sizes?

Ranging from 3" to 4" I'd say. Pretty young.

The L264 is full grown...about 6"

I've always had cats. Never had a tank without a few. I just don't have as many as you. Other than mpp and maybe funky - who does???

The 150 now has...
L75

Seven posts up ^

The only ones I may not have posted pics of may be the para. The Gold Nugget has been with me forever.

Remember?

Now that I look through my hard drive, I don't have any pics of the Para. I owe you one.

Oh heck no...I'll part with my 81 when he (or I) dies of old age - not until then. I love that fish.

MelonHead · Posted: Mon Oct 08, 2007 9:15 pm Post subject:

Ranging from 3" to about 4.5" or so
