Well,I'm sitting here watching the water level in my acclimating bucket slowly rise as I ready some of the most gorgous Discus I've ever seen for their new tank.One thing I've heard but never experienced till now,Discus people can't count.Danny's poor math skills went in my favor so I'm certainly not going to tell him he messed up.I rigged a quick drip system by tieing a length of airline to my baister,which floats in the aquarium,then putting a rubberband round the oposite end and folded it to control flow, and let it hang in the bucket and drip. I ended up with 5 Leopardskins,3 Maze type Red turq's and 2 Spotted Eruptions.One fish was laying on his side,flat on the bottom and scared me to death.After 1hr of slowly replacing the shipping water with tank water all are looking excelent(excelent is said with palms rubbing swiftly together).Gotta go,water level needs attention.

They are all swimming around looking for food.A Spotted Eruption was the first to start pecking at the sponge filter.I'm gonna take that as a good sign,and now they are all swimming around looking for food 30 minuts out of the acclimation bucket.I'll wait till tomorow to feed em but it won't be easy cause they look like their starving.So colorful already and actualy getting more colorful by the minute.well,back to watching TV(Tank Vision).
