Thank you Al!!!

[Ardan]

Thank you very much for the awesome box of fish I received today, Al!
It was like christmas.
I received a box load of fish today, including 7 cobalt discus, 12 angelfish including a large pair, and a pair of rams! And to top it off there was a cycled sponge filter for the discus and a cycled sponge filter for the angels/rams. All fish are in superb shape and beautiful colors. The discus are now in the tank swimming with fins erect acting like they have been there forever.
Al pulled me from the dumps as last week we had a series of electrical storms which did some damage here, including shorting one electrical circuit in our home, burning out a tv receiver, tripping 2 other circuits and worst of all 4 fish tanks had the heaters stuck on, including 2 heaters in my main discus tank, all 6 adult discus were dead, temp over 100F. I never thought 2 heaters in one tank would stick on at one time, but the power surge from lightning stuck them on. Anyway, I told Al I had lost the discus I had recieved from him last yr. and right away Al insisted we get going and get some fish in the tanks again. He said " let me surprise you with what I send, just get 2 tanks ready" and surprise me he did. So today was the day, luckily the shipment beat the winter storm we are having
The angelfish and rams are very very nice! I knew a few months ago when I saw pictures of Al's angels and rams, that I had to have some
I am very very happy with these fish, the packaging, the shipping and the customer support center Thanks again Al!

That was totally awesome for Al to do that. That is when we stick together as a discus family and help each other out when we are in need. I have done that for someone as well and it was the best feeling in the world knowing after someone looses alot of discus by no fault of their own, I could step in and help them out. Congrats to you Al, I admire you for doing this tremendous deed when a fellow discus member is in need.

Thats awesome Bill, keep up the great work. If I wasn't just getting back into breeding discus I would be right there with you guys to lend out a helping hand without a second thought but I don't have anything to donate right now but in the future I will definitely do my share if a problem arises.
