    Awesome looking tank and fish. You did a great job. So you got wrigglers? That's very cool.

    The manzanita has darkened as expected.... oh well. I really can't think of any kind of wood that wouldn't after soaking for a while... at first I kept getting a growth on the wood, and the sultan plecos didn't touch it. Geesh.. they were barely ever out. Since then I replaced them with some green phantom plecos and I haven't had to touch the wood once!

    The wrigglers are getting bigger by the day it seems... haven't really changed much other than lowering the flow on the filters and adding an airstone...

    That's great that they have been able to defend the wigglers in the community tank. Must be great parents. Really nice wilds. We don't get wild royal blues of that quality in Aus

    You got a camera earlier than expected, I remember reading it might not be until June
    Cheers

    lol... I broke down and went out and bought a camera sooner than later... but paid much less than normally anticipated... about 800 dollars less! lol... it's just a normal point-and-shoot type, but is a 12.1 megapixel... so hopefully I can get some decent pics from it.

    Glad you got a good deal on the camera. Us discus keepers are never happy, unless we can see pictures & I'm glad we'll now get to see pics of your wigglers as they grow, Yippee

    Dare Renee, What gorgeous fish and tank !! Love em' I know where you got your fish from too. That is a huge advertisment for them.. I have 7 wild greens but they have different colorations from each other. Some are darker, some green spots.. Love how your tank looks. David T

    Thanks David! I would be more than happy to tell anyone where I got these guys from whoever wanted to know! He did a wonderful job with these guys and I haven't had any health issues other than a bout of flukes that I took care of in quarrantine!
