Great to know as my next purchase, after I get me feet wet with the German stock, will be from Kenny. I'll have a separate QT grow out for those.
Here is the tank

If women don't find you attractive, may they find you handy.
I Loved Paul's answer to this, had specifics, i have done changes of 60%daily and still got fish sick (sponsor bought, not a dud in the house, but a rank noob in the houes)
but i do have to say i learned at NADA that the VERYnext time i have an illness im not sure the cause of, i will 100% send my weakest looking fish to the university THEYnot i will look at the microscope
Id like to see two things at the next NADA for my learning, ok three
1/. prices raised, this costs money to do and i intend to bring a fish ive raised for at least several months if i cant do it from scratch it will at least have months of my effort in there and ill be proud just to ENTER, i see the marine convention in Denver, charges a lot more, to cover the costs
2/. URJoey speaking about filtration, plumbing and DIY knowhow, not speaking a WORKSHOP, ill pay $150 for the ticket to go to that a hands on worshop with pvc and a tank, yes sir. thats the money for me because i can save so much doing some of this myself, he knows and can teach, not preach (huge difference between a speaker and a teacher, Paul was an awesome teacher btw i thought imho) things like how to calculate filtration for how much you feed and he knows his healthy discus.
3/. Medications, for real, down and dirty when you screwed up and you need to get your meds on, a practical not so much academic, how to diagnose and treat those illnesses you cause. YES clean water is Godly, there is no but.
water changes are Godly with discus. There are however, ways to use and treat and diagnose and this workshop should make it EASY, every person should go home with a box marked university to send their next sickly fish in it. if you wait till they are dead people, you waited too long BACTERIA multiply the moment death occurs obliterating a lot of evidence. send a live fish and save the next few years of learning.
ooh man that feels good to say, i have the urge to raise an NADA in Denver but id need a group and i tend to be the chick that flies solo

I think it is handy to have all med. ready for discus. I am staying in Australia and find hard to get most med. that's available in US. So, plan to get all the meds. online. Do you guys know any good site that sells meds. like: Furan-2, Kanamycin, Levamissol, acriflavin and meth blue? Thanks a lot.
Does anyone know what's going on with Maracyn 2 right now? You can't get it anywhere that I can find. It's like either there's some nationwide shortage or some government entity said it can't be sold anymore. Anyone know?

Discus do it bare bottom.
You can get Maracyn Two from the sponsor here at kenfish.com

Grasshopper

Check the link again. It clearly says "Out of stock", just like all of the other sellers I've seen lately. Something strange is afoot...

found this information really useful, (I am like the original poster setting up new and ....) your list when I did further research kept running into this article, which organizes your list of medicine cabinent items by type, discusses uses and myths, occasionally often has names of products containing the specified stuff and occasionally distinguishes between manufacturers saying some better or easier to use etc.(I think independently written by a broker of meds) Also discusses shelf life dates and etc.
BTW I found the article useful but bought several things on ebay so am not pushing the website or its products. Thanks for the post, and if you have any comments on this article http://www.americanaquariumproducts....edication.html I'd love to hear them!
