My kind of LFS rescue!!
Here they are Pril.....well two of em anyways. I rescued 4 in total. the other two paired off and I just put them in thier own tank an hour ago.....they were still a bit freaked out so I didnt get any pics of them. They are very similar though..all 4 are a solid 6" to the base of the tail. The only down side is two of them have yellow eyes, not my favorite eye color....but hey whadda ya want for 22 bucks each??

Re:My kind of LFS rescue!!
No worries guys....I would NEVER drift over to the dark side. Its just a background...didnt have anymore blue stuff. ;D
Al....they're all 6" standard, and thick as a brick. You should see those two go at it....all hell breaks loose in the tank.

I got em from "the discus graveyard" Pisces. Where discus go to die. They actually had 5 in total.....but the 5th one had huge pits in his head from HITH. He was the largest of the 5, a real brute. I went back on saturday.....he was jet black and hidding in the back of the tank....wont be long.
I must have gotten them just shortley after they were dropped of....they hadnt had time to do any real damage.

Re:My kind of LFS rescue!!
poor fish....dont you feel bad now tony? you couldve of fed him worms and cured him.
can you go hit the pisces guy on the head for me? and tell him to wake up and look after the fish?

Re:My kind of LFS rescue!!
He was cured Pril....the scaring was nasty though. REALLY nasty!!
I havent bought fish from them for a couple of years...really poor quality for the most part...plus when they get sick(everytime) they dont have a clue....they dont listen either. They actually get quite offended when offered advise.
I dont normally even go there anymore....I was buying hamster supplies for my kids and thought I'd just have a quick look....glad I did.

you got lucky man!! That place is a nightmare!!!!! You are so right about the advice part. I drop in there when I feel like rattling someone's chain!! Do they still run those big bags of peat on the little discus?
When I was there in August all the discus looked like crap,but to them they were healthy, when I asked to see them feed and the fish wouldn't it was because they were scared. I had to laugh as they were huddled in the same corner dark and didn't move as I watched them for 20 minutes.
Has riverfront cleaned up any? Most of the fish I seen there were also in very poor shape!!!!!
Good score for you though!!!!

Re:My kind of LFS rescue!!
Tony,
Congratulations. For $22 those are a steal. Of course it sounds like from that LFS description that they had better sell cheap or they won't be selling at all!
If they can't do right by the discus, why can't they stick to unkillable fish?
Good luck with those two!
John
