So I'm sure you all saw the great looking fry Mike (discman123) had for sale on here. Well, I ended up buying the lot. I picked them up this afternoon after their short flight to Minneapolis from St. Louis. Everything went smoothly and the packaging was top notch.
I also got a proven pair, Gold Melon female that's very pretty and a Red Turq male. Does anyone know what kind of combinations of fry I could expect from this pair?
Fry and pair hit their new tanks as if nothing had ever happened.
Here's how the pair welcomed their new home:

Unfortunately, the male wasn't feeling up to the task and ate the eggs as they were being laid. The female scolded him but then just gave in and ate some too. :) I'm sure they'll settle in and get their act together.
And a shot of all 78 fry in their new home:

Anyway, just wanted to share a couple pics and say that Mike was a pleasure to deal with and I can't wait to grow these fry out and see how they look when they get older.
