After making it through a 72 Gallon tank emptying itself and causing damage to my floor and ceiling and having to start over (this time in the basement where I promise my wife I couldn't do as much damage), I cycled my tanks and got fish from both Cary and Mike today!!

From Cary I got Marlboro Reds, Red Royal Blues, Golds, and Snake Skin RSG crosses!

From Mike I got Red Whites, Red Pearls, and Leopard Snake Skins!

I've got them in the tanks now for about 1 1/2 hrs and they look great!!

I'm going to be posting pictures once they're ready.

Finally!!!

Carol,

I'm a little embarrased to say, but I got 21 total. It was a combination of my birthday present and something I've been saving up for for a while.

Got any pictures yet? :inquisitive: I'll be getting some Red Royal Blues from Cary myself, and was pondering the RSG x Leopard crosses. :thumbsup: Just waiting for my nitrites to drop. :-\ Oh can anybody show me what I can expect the RSG x Leopard cross to look like when full grown? :fish:

Carol,

The one in picture 9 is a Red White from Mike Wells. It should end up being white with a large red circular area.

I also want to thank everyone else who responded!!

Wow, Nice fishes :)
This is too bad to me that there is no Discus breeder in my country (or I dont know them) and the only thing that I can do is going to too many fish centers and looking for new discuses every time and buy them if there is some of good looking fishes :(

Ali,

If there is no breeder in your country, maybe you can be the first one!
