Hello All,
Just want to show my newly acquired proven pairs from Mike Heppner. One is a Fineline Snakeskin and the other is Red Dragon.

I recieved them on Thursday and one of the Snakeskin bag was punctured by the fins and barely had any water in it. The discus was barely alive and by saving grace it survived.

The Red Dragon pair started bowing to each other soon as I released them in the tank. I did the dump method no acclimating at all.

I hope to get some nice fry.

Absolutely Gorgeous Dan! Drop me an IM when you get some fry out of that Snakeskin pair. I would love to take a few of their babies off of your hands. :)

Ryan,
I hope so. The male almost died in transit so they're still recuperating from the ordeal. Thanks

NO KA OI Braddah. I have a pair of SS like that. It helps that I got them from the same source. ;D I am waiting till my ribs are okay to restart my fishroom then I will be practicing shipping also. Keep us posted on their progress and from the looks of the pairs, you are going to be very busy. Look forward to hearing from you.

Aloha, Ike ;)

Aloha Braddah,
Glad to see you. How's your fishroom coming along? When will your ribs suppose to heal. I wish you well my friend.

I reinjured my back yesterday. Old injury from my military days. Not too bad. Can still change water. ;D ;D
