    Sorry to hear Jacob. They are demanding fish. Your Stendker are some of the nicest I’ve seen. Don’t think anyone else on here has any. Way too far for me and my tanks are full.

    What do you do with all the fish, Willie?!

    I've always appreciated that sentiment, Tom! Thanks again!

    Hmmm that is very tempting, we may be able to do that.

    I have a good friend, someone who posts here, take my discus and angelfish for the summer. The corydoras and plecos have to make do with autofeeders.
    At my age, everything is irritating.

    Cool mate. Which 2? Have you had previous spawning activity? I’m 6 hours each way in SW Ohio…

    The "pigeon blood" and the "dark angel". I think. There's been a few hanging around including the solid turq. They'd eaten most of the eggs before I'd noticed them. It actually could have been the day before, it was on the back side so I couldn't really see what was happening.
    There'd been a little bit of courting activity in the 75, but I think it was too cramped for them to want to spawn. The 125 gives them a lot more space so they seem to be staking out areas. Pretty positive that this is the first time they've laid eggs, though.

    Cool mate. I wish I could make a trip up to meet you and get the discus but this is the busiest time of year for me and I rarely have a whole day to dedicate to any singular thing…
