Im driving down to Michigan this labor day weekend to visit my girlfriend's sister which im not really excited about...but oh mannn..im going to visit CARY and hopefully bring some of his babies home ;) Im keeping my finger crossed, i always wanted to get fish from CARY, but things always come up and I never did purchase any from him. But this time, I might be able to drop by ....... I have been waiting since July for this !!!!!! :bounce2: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce2: :bounce2: :sun: :sun: :juggle: :juggle: :jester: :jester: :crazy: :crazy:

You will have a great time !!!!! I've driven to Cary's twice and had a great visit each time. Took lots of pics !!!!!!!

The only downfall was my wife went once and all I hear now is "Will your fishroom look like Cary's"???? I hope so !!!!!! That's all I can say !

Have a great time and a great holiday as well !!!!!!

My wife has given in to the fish !!!!! She can't stop the addiction so she wants it to get done. And done right this time !! I think she hated giving up the fish more than I did.

So I have a big job ahead of me !!!!!! Cary's hatchery is first class just like he is !!!!!!! But I have time once I get back !!!!

Enjoy and buy !!!!!!
And buy lots !!!!!

Hey!! Where is Jack at, he is not in the pic? I see it is about time to send Jack a little gift.....I think a small camping shovel and a request from me to dig a really big hole in Moms new flower bed should do it ;D ;D ;D

Arent these guys beautiful or what? Now you guys know why i didnt want to leave Cary's house at all ;D ;D. Unfortunately, i didnt get any fish. Cary didnt have any for sale so I guess I have to wait. Cary is such a nice guy, most of my girlfirend's family got to meet him and on our way back all they can say is how nice he is. and "JACK IS SOOO CUTE !!" my girlfriend keeps saying ;D ;D

Cary, it was great to finally meet you and your family. Thank you very much for your time. I hope I can come back one day and visit you again. I'll keep in touch with you.

Thanh Nguyen.


Thanks again.

Very nice collection of discus. What do you mean he doesn't have any to sell? Cary is keeping all of them? He's is crazy ;D ;D. He has to share his gems. He needs rooms for new strain of discus. Thanks for the report. Those spotted white butterfly are excellent.

Great pictures, keep posting. I am also waiting for fish from Cary. I can not wait. Judging from the photos I have seen so far it is going to be hard to pick. I like #11 and the last one of page 2 of your post. I have already IM Cary.

I would have loved to have went to Cary's. You are lucky...

Thanks Everyone!

The pic you are asking about is a F1 white diamond x leopard.
My plan is to grow out a few females to backcross to dad.
as they grow most still go solid as of now but some do not and show very good red and cleaness.
I'll keep Ya posted! ;D

Mike,
I have a small batch right now at 1/2' it will be about 2 months before I can pic for that pattern.

TnT,
Thanks for the kind words! You have a very nice family indeed
it was good to meet all of You. Now remember what I said
You will have them Discus soon.

THANKS AGAIN EVERYONE
Cary Gld!

Hi Cary:
That explains the bright red eyes. They are exceptionally clean. I would have expected pepper with a BDxWP X leopard. Interesting body pattern and no snowflake anywhere?

Hello My friend,
They are about 2 months old and very close to 2" I feed them live BLKworm,Shaved Bloodworm, ONF1 + 2, Beefheart + shrimp Mix, And Haikari discus pellets. I try to feed them 4xs a day with 100% w/c daily.
there wre about 180 in this batch. I pulled them from the parents at 3 weeks and put the in a 75Gal tank untill now!

Today I will move them to a 125G. Most will be sold but first 30 Quality pcs will be pulled for 150gal tank for later ;D.

hth
Takecare,
Cary Gld!
