Thank you, Thank you , Thank you; for the appaluse. You all may be seated, now.

Thank you very much for your hospitality, Ken.
Ken was extremely accomodating. He allowed Devin and I, to use his place to inspect and do a minor w/c.

Thank you Cary, for the excellant discus and the great packaging. They were all triple bagged, in large bags! No fooling around with Cary.

The discus, them selves, were beautiful. All were healthy anf great lookers.

Thanks Ken, it was very nice meeting with you and Thanks for allowing Smokey and I to use your counter space as well!!! (it was christmas at Ken's house)

The fish are in the tank and are doing very well. When I got them in the tank they were very hungry looking for food all over so I gave them some and they were not that shy came out and devoured it. This morning when I fed them they were eating out of my hand. I could not believe it. :bounce2: :bounce2: I will try and post some pics but would like to wait till they are well established. Devin

I just noticed, looking over at the tank, with the 6 new blue diamonds in it.

They are going crazy ... looking for food !!!!
It was late, when I got home last night , I acclimatizing the new discus to my "peat" water and then placed them in a 85 Liter established tank. I was right outa bloodworms, so I tried a few morsals of bh diet. [ All I had on hand ! ].

They tried a few bits, but not really interested {?}.

This morning ... a very different story.
It's like the " go " switch was turned "ON " !!!

The baby Blues are in full colour, and devouring the bh diet.

OK, I am off to the shop and get some bloodworms and brineshrimp; and any thing else on the shelf, that I my find interesting to feed my new babies.

Hahahaha. No, they really devour the bloodworms.
I placed them in the quartien tank, with the 6 gold peral scale angels. The angels did not know what to make of the newbies!

The new babies took over the tank, and the bloodworms... The discus school around the tank, like no tomorrow. Very beautiful to watch.
