    Default Jumbo Piwo RT Pair

    Chad and I made a stop in New Orleans on the way to the NADA Show in Austin and picked up this pair I bought from Frank (qiyanfeng). Frank got these as juvies from Kraig (Kingdom Come Discus) and did a really great job growing them out. They are very big and thick. I have had them for 8 months now and they have never given any signs of being interested in breeding although they spawned for Frank. They just swam in the tank looking big and pretty. A huge snow storm hit Atlanta today and guess that did the trick.

    Beautiful pair ! Hopefully in future spawns that you get out of this pair, I may buy some off you.

    The first spawn was not successful. They just had the 2nd spawn which went free swimming yesterday but it is only about 25. I will pull them them pretty quickly so they can give it another try.
