Can't wait to see the new ones Debbie!
I made the trip to Dan's (Gulf Coast Discus) place today. I've been saving up for a while, knew I needed 3 spotted fishies to finish my collection (for now!). Every time I go there I'm like a kid at a candy store, hard to decide what to buy.....But, I finally brought home 3 LSS juvies. They are beautiful, and eating bloodworms as we speak! I'll post some pics in a couple of days, let them settle in a little. I have wanted some spots in my planted tank, and now I will have them!
I'm still in awe of that fishroom, love that setup! Talk about your magical garages, this is a cool place. I hope to one day have some breeding tanks, but for now, I better stay away, discus fever is upon me once again!!

I got some new babies from Dan today myself So far it's the only thing that's gone right this week. lol
I live in FL so unfortunately I didn't get to visit in person... but he did a wonderful job of picking out some beautiful fish for me. They ate a giant chunk of bloodworms tonight and begged for more. I have never had new discus out and about, parading around the tank on the first night being here. They're usually shy for a couple days. Not these brats

I actually took some great pictures of them last night. I love these guys. We'll see how they enjoy their first water change tonight -- hopefully things go well. I'm sure they'll be a little unhappy when I start jamming hands and hoses into the tank.
When I get home today I will post some pictures. Dan told me to give them a couple days to adjust before making any judgements, but he certainly shouldn't worry... they looked great right out of the bag. They ate 2 giant chunks of bloodworms last night, some flake, and begged for more.
This picture is about 4 hours after being in the tank... just a teaser until later (they look much better now than when I took this)
Oooo Very pretty Ryan!!!

Marie, I brought home 3 LSS. Oh gosh, I wanted them all!! Good thing I only had so much money! Yes, I know I am fortunate to live within driving distance of Dan, This is my 3rd purchase, and each time I learn so much, maybe...maybe one day I will have my own breeding tanks. Waiting on the kid to get home so I can use her digicam.
