Camera out tonight

Hi all,
I thought I would have a glass of wine and take a few shots of the discus I have raised now for the last 11 months. This is not all but a few of them.
Just have to love these fish ;)

Nice pictures, that room with the tanks looks like my family room. :D

[fishmama]

Very nice! Looks like they are relaxed and happy...did they partake in the wine?! ;-)

[AADiscus]

Must of been some very good wine.....your fish look really nice. ;)

Such clean tanks!...Nice fish too....I really like the bonsai. I used to do the same with mine in the fishroom...I would rotate the bonsai leaving each one in the fishroom a few days at a time, before I would remove it and show another one, except for the indoor ones, which do well under fish room lighting year round...they look good with discus...I miss my collection of bonsai.

Hi William,
Yes Bonsai is my first obsession. I sold all my indoor trees and only have this one left. Hope to get rid of it soon so I can spend more time with the fishies :)

I want to thank all of you for the kind words.
I am a beginner with discus but they have gotten me addicted for sure. I need more space for more tanks ;) Wish I had a basement.

Hi Marie,
Thanks for the kind words, They look nicer after a couple glasses of Shiraz ;)
The camera I have is a Panosonic lumix fz20.
I would send you that tree but I don't think they will let me ship to California so sorry ;)
Marie you could have a few glasses of wine and maybe that avatar will grow on you. Nah just kidding, I looked to find it on my confuser but I must of deleted it or put it an a disk somewhere. I'll keep looking though.

Hi Darren,
Thank you for the kind words. Yes this is my little world where I can get away and get rid of stress. I really love these fish and someday will have a building where I can have more tanks. I really enjoy the most watching them grow.

Merry Christmas and a enjoyable New Year to you and yours.
