    Default 180 Commitment!

    Well today I received from Spirits of the Amazon 10 Super Blue Angel Diamonds and 1 High Body Maze Turquiose.
    I am putting these eleven in my 180 I recently got back from JimG! Since my piwos are happily swimming and not into breeding at the moment I am going to grow these guys out in this huge tank since they are only 2-2.5 inch they are swimming like fiends lol. I will post pics later tonight or tomorrow. I will say this out of the box these fish were very attentive and acclimated superb! My hat is off to Nate and Jamie.

    Elliot,
    You need help I will get some pics tonight lol I have moved them from the 180 to a 29 for the time being these are finicky eaters they don't seem so stressed being in a smaller tank .
    I have also made a new seafood mix from Marc Weiss look it up on youtube its a whole interview but the recipe is quick and easy!
