This will be a random assortment of fish and people pictures and videos. Please bear with me as I upload and post them.

First some fish...

Thanks Marnie, I did not take pictures of all the fish as some just would not cooperate. Ask Matt LOL. I do not remember whose skin that was. I am identifying the fish as I go if I remember whose they were.

You can definitely tell there is heckel blood in those fish. The patterning, the face shape, and the overall body shape are dead giveaways. I used to have heckel x turks and they were some of my favorite fish.

John, do you think the spotting from the eruption parent would come through in future generations if you bred the siblings to each other, or back to a parent? Or is it likely they'll all be striated like this?

I believe that last one is the Florida Discus one I was drooling over on Matts photo thread. All look stunning. That Heckel cross is a beaut as well.

Sry Pat, you were in the middle of posting when I replied. I meant the last discus on Post#18.

This one Rick? and believe you are right.

It is amazing what lack of WCs and food do to the fish. I came home to two nine month old Altum Floras being all flirty with each other.

06-25-2014, 01:02 PM

Not sure Ryan. The other pair is 9 bar and a SS. Per JamesP about 10% of the F2's show the heckle bar. I would guess at least some of the SS will show spotting but I do not know the coverage. I think it will fun to play with though. I will be moving both pairs to my breeding rack sometime this week. Around here it can be challenging to get much spawning in summer time but if I can get them going I will post some crappy pics of them...LOL.

I also came home with a pair from JamesP. Mine was the SS pair of heckel cross. Summer is the same issue with me John. Fishroom just gets too hot. May be Sept/Oct before I get to see what will come.

Yep....old breeders secret. Don't do a water change for a couple of weeks, just remove the solids and then hit them with a big WC. If they are close at all they will spawn.....but lets keep it a secret just between us....

Wonderful pics! Some beautiful fish! I love the blue scorpion and of course many many more! Love fineline snakes...well lots! But...by sounds of things most of them ended up at johns house! Dottie looks great! How did Josie get a big tank like that to set up in Texas? Surely she didn't drag it from Chicago...
Also love those artificial stumps...does he wholesale? I could sell those!
And ..last but not least...how does April get a nice nada shirt?
One last thing..can thr next Nada show be in Seattle Washington? Far closer for me! And surely all you guys would like to see Seattle!

Wow! Very nice fish from everyone. For some reason, I like the look of discus with the bars showing. Love the heckle cross with the pronounced bar in the middle.

Pat, I have only just had time to look at this thread. You have done a wonderful job of showing the whole show (almost) to everyone!
Thanks so much for all your work to do this.
And thanks for not showing all those pics from our ladies dinner. Some of those could be embarrassing to some of us, LOL!! Very well done Pat!
Barb

Barb, I did not have my camera that night so you are lucky. I of course would honor any requests to not show certain pictures :D I did enjoy our ladies night.

How did Josie get a big tank like that to set up in Texas? Surely she didn't drag it from Chicago...

Glass cages brought it w/the show tanks.

Also love those artificial stumps...does he wholesale? I could sell those!

Contact them, wonderful folks that have amazing work - they even have a fake rock jacuzzi! - http://www.universalrocks.com/, tell em NADA sent you. ;)

And ..last but not least...how does April get a nice nada shirt?

PM me a size and addy and I'll see what I can do. :)
