    Default I can't wait

    Miranda ordered 8 Classic Blue Leopards for me to choose 4 from. That strain is exactly what I need to breed my 2 good fish with. I choose the 4 I want. Now all I have to do is wait until Tuesday morning when they will arrive at my door. I will do my best not to die of anticipation.

    I must really be hooked on these big round fish. Even I have a hard time believing that after all pain and suffering I have gone through because if them that I'm as excited as a newbie.

    You know what they say about addictions. Even if you stop, it lies in wait to come back stronger!

    It's Saturday now. They have separated my fish into their own tank and are starving them before shipping. Just 2 1/2 days until they will be in my tank. I have their tank ready for them. They will be here so soon but the waiting for them is still very hard.

    They're old enough for me to make a pretty solid guess as to their sex. I would guess maybe somewhat over a year.

    Here at the Spotted Leopards that Liz is getting on Tuesday. I have them listed as 5.5" on the website, but really they are between 5.5 and 6.0". Young adults.

    I tried to pick two males and two females. One of my existing fish is a proven Blue Scorpion female. My favorite fish, a Spotted Blue Snakeskin looks more and more male every day.

    Thanks Miranda and Josie for bringing these in for me. I know that you weren't planning on ordering this strain. Tuesday seems so far away. I can't stand it.

    Now you know how I felt waiting for those angels of yours. Those leopards are gorgeous. I’m currently treating a sick (lollipop) discus and while I’m hoping for the best, this would be a nice replacement...hard to look her in the eyes now. Ha ha

    I have seen this thread, Patty. You have done everything right. I don't know why your lollipop is not getting better. I would help if I could.
