New fish from Mike!

[kitykatfunkiehat]

I just got my ring leopard, red turq and checkerboard pigeon today. Such gorgeous fish!! A bit skittish from the level of activity around the tank, but otherwise they seemed to adapt well. Still exploring!

Perfect packaging :D

Will do! I didn't want to keep the light on too long and bother them with my camera so I didn't take many tonight. We'll see how they are tomorrow!

[vera]

WOW !!beautiful fish, love these rings ;) but the Turq is a stunner!!
Best of luck Jenna !

[kitykatfunkiehat]

The leopard is my favorite :) and the turq is taking the longest to adjust...definitely the shyest! Hopefully it comes around by tomorrow!

[Aries]

Cheers,
Aries

[kitykatfunkiehat]

Thanks guys. Everyone loves the turq! I love the leopard.

Jenna ( my daughter's name) :9) Beautiful discus.... Yes i too love the turq.. Mike had like 3 different turqs.. which breeding is this one from ?? david T

[waters10]

Thanks guys. Everyone loves the turq! I love the leopard.
I love all 3! The turk has really nice fins though! Does he seem more comfortable today?

[kitykatfunkiehat]

Jenna ( my daughter's name) :9) Beautiful discus.... Yes i too love the turq.. Mike had like 3 different turqs.. which breeding is this one from ?? david T

I believe it was from the batch that was labeled as Red Turquoise 1 (US lip)? Which I'm not sure was US lip means, but he was $75. Thank you!!


I love all 3! The turk has really nice fins though! Does he seem more comfortable today?

Yes, but he's still dark on and off. They all are more comfortable, and the pecking order has begun!

[Arjunpun]

That's awesome fish. I was all over albino before. Now I been very much interested in classic discus.

[kitykatfunkiehat]

Albinos are very unique, but I find the lot of them to be pretty similar to eachother. There are soooo many strains to choose from, kinda a headache!

[yim11]

I believe it was from the batch that was labeled as Red Turquoise 1 (US lip)? Which I'm not sure was US lip means, but he was $75. Thank you!!

That's Ung Seng Lip if I'm not mistaken, he would be the breeder in Malaysia that created that great fish!

HTHs,

[kitykatfunkiehat]

Oh! Well know I feel special! He is very pretty. I love them!

[joanr]

All three are stunners, congrats on receiving such nice fish from Mike! It's a great start.

[dbfzurowski]

Very nice, congrats

[Rod]

Nice one Jenna, great looking discus.

[scottthomas]

That Turk is great. Excellent shape and sort of unique pattern.

[Eddie Wells]

Jenna love all your fish, good luck with them!

[Alok]

Absolutely love the RT, and the ring leopard comes in close second, but....do you have only 3 discus in the tank?

[kitykatfunkiehat]

Well, I had 3 others for them to join, but two just recently died :/

[danjadragonfly]

they really looking nice, can not decide whcih is better
good luck with outgrowing them to their full potential. Please update with pics

[kitykatfunkiehat]

Hey thanks!
I should go snap a few. I'll try to get back to this soon!

[kitykatfunkiehat]

K guys- here's a buttload of pictures.
Ps, the BD is not from Mike. He is a fish I had previously. I only have four in the tank currently cause 2 of my previous fish died :(
Also, excuse my bare, horrendous aquascaping. I'm still brainstorming what I want to do with it.

The turk is so shy. I cannot get a head on picture of him

This picture is hilarious, because I was trying to take a picture of my "three amigos", when the BD SHOT right into the frame, hence him being blurry. He would not leave my camera lens alone. It took forever to shoot around him.

This picture doesn't do this justice, and he kinda had his bars showin..but my leopard has the MOST incredible coloration I have ever seen. He literally shines. Especially when sunlight hits the tank...it's like a rainbow.

[kitykatfunkiehat]

The leopard and pigeon just spawned!!
Not a huge clutch but I'm SOOO excited :)
I'll post pictures when my camera charges!

[Disgirl]

Beautiful group of fish there Jenna! Good luck with them!
Barb:)

[joanr]

They look great Jenna, love the shy Turk! I'm also gathering ideas for aquascaping the 75gal I'm getting soon, the key is keep it simple and elegant, they still need a very clean environment especially when growing out.

[jrodriguez]

love them!
