    Thanks guys. I really appreciate the compliments. You have all probably heard me say this before but its worth repeating. Wilds have a very unassuming, classic beauty about them. I like a lot of domestics but there is just something about a nice wild that really makes it stand out above the rest for me. The chair in my fish room is always sitting in front of the wild tanks.

    Glad to see them looking so happy. BTW that one Alenquer that you decided to pass up on is starting to look really good.

    LOL, are you saying I should come pick it up? They did mix in very well with my blues.

    I had the privilege of seeing these beauties up close and in person at the last SEDE meeting, and I can tell you, they are just amazing- I was hooked immediately. I have to agree with Larry here, they really do have a subtle, natural beauty to them that is nothing like that of many domestic strains, they are very different indeed. I can definitely see a tank of wilds in my future as a discus keeper...

    Love the tank and especially the greens. The greens I received last week are quickly becoming my favorites. Very outgoing fish.

    Thanks guys. I can sit back and watch these guys forever. Interesting the blues and reds which are in a 125 also, are pretty laid back and don't school up much. These guys like to hang together as a group which makes it a lot more fun to watch. The manzanita is still pretty new so I am getting a lot of tannins in the water which they really like.
