Very nice Eddie! Happy Birthday!!!
Hey all,
Birthday today and guess what I picked up from the airport.....A nice box of fish from the man....Forrest!!!
I don't even want to get into what I had to go through to get these guys pass customs, lets just say ALOT OF PAPERWORK!!! Plus I told them it was my birthday.
Anyways, I'll start with a nice round of pictures from box to tank and then cruising around the tank.
Received
3 each Blue Scorpion at 3-3.5"
3 each Penang Eruption at 3"
2 each Pearl Diamond at 3"
These guys are beautiful, best birthday gift I ever received. Forrest is definitely #1!

Run through the album, about 14 photos.
These guys just wolfed down some FBWs too.
Hearty straight out of the box!
Eddie

Just like Christmas all over again. I wish Santa would leave bags of discus over the fireplace.
I see that you opened the bags while you were floating them... just wondering what that reason was... (maybe I'm doing it wrong?) lol!

No, I didn't open them right away. That pic was taken when I was adding tank water to the bags. Once the tank water hit them, they came ALIVE!!!
These guys are phenomenal! Can't wait til they settle in over a week or 2. I'm gonna hit'em with the 1-2 punch tomorrow, my seafood mix.

Happy Birthday and enjoy all of your beautiful new fish, they are nice and will look so much better in a few weeks with your TLC.

Thanks! Forrest definitely supplies the beauties!
Take care,
Eddie
Happy B-DAY Eddie!...The fish look sweet!...Am partial to the Scorps myself. I think recieving Discus brings out the kid in ALL of us. Good luck with them and enjoy!...Bill
Happy B-DAY Eddie, I'm glad you found some nice fish!!

So you had to go and do it did you? Now Im chomping at the bit for mine haha. Keep up posted on thier progress ie pairs etc... Happy B day buddy.
Ed
Awesome, Eddie!!! I'm happy for you! You've been wanting a shipment of fish for a while that I know of. The fish look great and I'm jealous! lol
Anthony
Happy birthday again!!!
They look seriously AWESOME!!!!!!!!! (I rarely use that word - LOL!)
aren't the blue scorpions the best? i mean this in the best way towards Kenny and Forrest but the pictures they take do not capture the beauty of them in person. they are something else, my blue scorpion is on my top fav list. congrats on the order. how many are you up to now? when will you get another tank? i'd hate to see your water bill this month
