Well, it turns out that there is enough light to take some reasonable pics at Cary's house. Here's the best I could do.

Talk about a kid in a candy store,it must have been way fun.
I know when I have gone to a "Big Breeders" facility, you get a rush looking at all those beautiful fish, and then you got to take some home.
How cool is that :cool:

Thanks for the Eye Candy

Very nice photos Dave and that Cary has more Discus breeding than you can shake a stick at. If I didn't see eggs it was the young fry swimming around. Great job both of you guy's are doing and thanks for the photos.

I want that Tangerine male thats not allowed to leave! :oStunning Fish :o. Thanks for all the info Dave. Feel free to tell us more. Rich
12-03-2002, 11:13 AM
Beautiful... Simply Beautiful.... Simply Cary.... :D :D Thanks for sharing Dave. ;)

Actually Richie... I spoke with Cary on Sunday, he said Dave had snapped pics of the Pappa to my Gold Marlboro's he sent, and posted him as a Tangerine by mistake. So unless I mistunderstood Cary, that Tangerine Male (that's not allowed to leave) is really a Golden Marlboro.

CARY WHERE ARE YOU ????
We need help on identification poleese... :P

Wow Dave, beautiful fishes, eye candies indeed.

So does that mean you are broke and will be selling them off in Canada? ;D

Best of luck with them and can I be first in line for the Red Rose babies? That is one beautiful fish. ;D


Cheers,

Chi.

Nah, I'm not broke. This is the reason I was selling a bunch of adults a couple of months ago. I wanted to give some room for new guys and get a couple of pairs going. My S/S pair has about 100 fry on their backs right now and with a lotta luck the Tangerine/Red Melon will form a pair and follow their lead. I hold my fry until they're 2" and sell them for $20 Cdn. I'll let you know when I have something for sale.

Julz, Cary said that the Tangerine males in the pictures are brothers so if the one is a Gold Marlboro then they both are. But what's in a name? Doesn't mean anything to me so long as they're round, big & healthy.

Wow! What a good deal! 100 fry for $20Cdn. You can definitely count me in! ;D :D LOL!

And that's including shipping? ;)

When do you think they will be ready? I may need some also depending on when rack is setup (without automation though)!
12-03-2002, 08:11 PM
I'll bid $20 US for the 100 fry w/ shipping

oh wait....the auctions haven't started...daggummit
12-03-2002, 09:17 PM
Oh so TRUE Dave.....

Healthy and Big and Round and Orange.... if anyone asks. ;) Oh and came from Cary too. (now there's a definite plus.) :D

How sure are you that the Angels in the pic are true Altums? They appear to be the "Peruvian" form to me. A Scalare variant.

Either way, they are nice fish. I may have to sneak down there and grap a couple ;) ...

Matt L

As it turns out they are Peruvian Altum Angels.

Kewl! They looked familiar to me :D

Not a true Altum, but they do a great job when crossed into a domestic strain.

A link to a good classifacation page is below along with a couple pics.

Steve Rybicki has done some great work in crossing domestic angels to wilds. Here is one of his pics of a GoldMarble line
