    Default Back in the Game With Wild Greens

    These guys came yesterday and for one day after shipping they are looking pretty good. These are wild Tefe RSGs. They are comfortable with me and they are eating. I couldn't ask for more at this point in time.

    This one is the largest of the group. When he came in he laid on his side for a while and today he is up and eating. Guessing the dark area around it's gill is from shipping so I am hopeful it will clear over time.

    Fish are looking stunning. When I first saw the post I thought you were blaming AI for it...I guess it is not artificial intelligence yet with Discus. It is our Al

    Very nice Pat, they look amazing for 1 day after shipping! How many did you acquire? Plans to breed or just enjoy?

    I wondered this morning why you needed to set up a water aging barrel. I figured I missed something.

    They're real beauties, Pat.

    Haha, I thought the same thing Liz, to the point that I spent 10 minutes searching back on the “what are you up to today” thread trying to find where sneaky Pat mentioned ordering the wilds. This process was complicated by the fact that I have a very small screen in my cell phone and didn’t have my glasses! Sneaky Pat!!

    Thank you Jan and somehow think Al doesn't mind being an discus influencer! He and I share the same love for wild greens

    Thank you Danny, I am sort of surprised they are looking this good in my tap water. I have seven in the tank Danny and too answer your question hopefully both.

    Thank you Liz and yup, dropping hints here and there. I figured no one was paying attention but good to see I was wrong.
