Excellent thanks Pat. I'm one of those hipster juicer people now so I always have tons of pulp and skins left over I could use for this purpose instead of tossing it down the disposal.

Winn, there is a link on the worm wars thread on where I got my worms. PM me if you do not find it.
Sorry for the hijack Larry.
Your discus are talking to you....are you listening
Lol, I think you know how I feel about this..................but, I'm all about helping grow the discus hobby. I don't mind at all having my threads take side discussions like this one, in fact I welcome it!! I'll always get it back on track when I post another update, lol.
I get my red wigglers here http://unclejimswormfarm.com/index.p...-products.html

Ditto on that Larry, my threads always seem to take little sideways but anything to help promote the hobby and that is where I got my worms also.

Very impressive Larry !!!!
Nice set up and outstanding wilds! I am hoping to get my seperate building next year and have some goals to work with some wilds when set up...
I need to make a trip to meet you and the Atlanta group at some point soon.
Enjoy following your thread
All the best
Thanks Eric. This has been fun and this time around with Wllds has been evolving and changing (GROWING) since I first made the decision to give them another shot at breeding. I started out thinking I would get one group of wilds for the 220 and work with them. I have two 125's that I have not been using for discus. Well, I'm now relocating the fish from those two tanks so they will be available for wilds. I have a group of 6 Heckels coming in from John on Tuesday. Like I said it is a plan in progress but now I'm thinking I would like to work on some wild/wild and wild/domestic crosses (that is where the heckels come in). Since I'm only working 6 1/2 hours a day now, I have more time than I had in the past to put into this which makes a huge difference.
It would be great if you could make it down here sometime and I would enjoy getting up there at some point. You should consider coming to Austin in June!!

Nice Larry, which heckels are you getting from John? With the recent spawning activity I have in the big tank it appears I have two males in my heckel group.

I have been making cuts in the 220. The plan has been to get down to 10 to 12 for the final number. I am down to the final 6 from my current group of wilds. I will add the new guys I have ordered from Mark and that will get me to my magic spot. I am really pleased with how these guys have been settling. They are starting to show some great color and their shape is pretty decent.
