    Default Galaxy Turq & Cobalt

    I was lucky to acquire two fantastic fish at the NADA show and have high hopes breeding these two. Female is a Scarlet Snakeskin from Ricky Lim and sold to me by Marion at Florida Discus. This fish received second place in the fine line class. Male is a huge stunning Galaxy Turq sold to me by David from Angelfishusa.
    I will post pics as soon as I find some lol.
    I snagged this pic of the galaxy male from RichT's thread. If you mind Rich just let me know.

    congrats Tara! post some pics

    hope you guys aren't too exhausted after your impressive packing up job, and then UNpacking/sorting/etc after getting home!
    (if I remember correctly, 23 new fish? )
    hope the new fish are all doing well.

    Nice to meet you at the show. And take good care of that Galaxy. That was one of the nicest galaxies i've seen (and remember, i just got back from Tony in Malaysia!).

    It was a long ride home. The alternator went out in the truck so we had a 2 hour stop to get it fixed. So it was around 1am when we got home and 3:30am when we finally got everything set up and all the new fish tanked.
    Lol and yes 23 new fish.

    Glad the new additions are doing well! That is a gorgeous Turq! Those two will make a stunning pair! Can't wait to see the babies you raise from them.
