    Default Greetings from the Void...

    Time really does Fly... it has been far too long since I posted here. I am very sorry for that everyone. Life has a way of throwing you curve balls and completely kicking your legs out from under you from time to time. I hope you all made it through the Pandemic and are doing well.

    The rumors that I fell into a void and was never heard of again are obviously not true, though the climbing out was not easy /is not easy.I'm sure to slip again from time to time. I am doing okay though. Its been so long I am sure that a few of you don't even know me and are sitting there saying "who the heck is this guy?" No worries, I hope to get to you know you. As for my old Discus buds heres.. so good to see you all !

    I spent the last few years in Discus purgatory. I split most of my pairs up and did not breed many discus. This past past week I put my pairs back together and am hoping to pick up where I left off. Still working with my wild X domestic crosses.. Very promising stuff too. I figured I should get my self back on track..


    Oh but not too make you think I was bored and did no breeding. My son and I got into Axolotls... what a cool critter, and as in all things we do with hobbies, we went over board. Once you get the basics down Axolotls breed as prolifically as Angelfish. We are currently working with wild type brown, Leucistics, and coppers. Nice thing is my sons taken the reins on the axolotls and has been selling them now to help with college expenses.

    So thats the skinny on me.. feel free to pop in to this thread and say hi .

    Thanks! Technically I've been a member here since 2006, but reading here convinced me that doing discus at that time would have been a bad idea. Different account now, obviously.

    Its a very small world.. I was doing some research just yesterday and came across your "Discus Journal" on another forum by chance.. You've had an interesting journey so far! Got to love internet rabbit holes... look for one thing and find a million others.
