Hi all, time to post some pics of my fish. I got these from Kenny last August. They are about 10 months old and 6 to 6 1/4 TL. I have 2 WB, 1 WB scorpion throwback and one checker board pidgon. I started with 7 but I lost 3, one due to extreme bloat, one due to a nitrite spike and the other one was my fault. So I only have 4, guess I have to get some more fish from Kenny.

Thanks guys, I am hoping that the large WB looses the orange tint as it matures. The
beautiful WB that moik just got from Forrest and Kenny is a show stopper in my opinion. I am hoping mine will look like that.

Wow Steve! Amazing!!!!!

I love each and everyone! For pigeon lines, they hardly show any pepper, and it seems you have them in a planted tank (?)!

What are you feeding them, they seem very well nourished to say the least!!!!! :D

OK, now you all went and encouraged me, now I've got to post more pics. These were taken with strong sunlight shinning through the tank producing a translucent effect.

Thanks Kenny! I love these fish, I have had the discus fever for many years but have always maneged to control it with good doses of failure and disappointment. I have never had what I would call a successfully grow out of juvies, always ending up with stunted fish or a die off from some unknown illness. Even this group is not a total success for me, I lost my best one, the scorpion carnation, he was going to be a trophy. I want to thank you and Forest for providing top of the line healthy fish at an affordable price that enables us to have a great chance at achieving big vibrant beautiful fish! I am feeling the fever again.
