Hi everyone!

Today is a good day for discus! I went to Hans today to pick up my wilds and I must say he surpassed everything I ever expected! (more on that later on it's own thread!). Then I came home to find that 5 out of 6 pairs are laying eggs today, all at the ssame time...could not resist and make a post of it! All in all a great day!

Tank with floating bags...teaser for now...another thread later!

moon_knight, they are Albino Red Whites and are truly PINK. Currently we have two pairs of them with Rod. If anyone is looking for a few of these I have three Pinks for sale along with a few Albino Blue Diamonds.

Rod, when my hands are so sore from working with clay for hours at a time, I will remember these pictures you have posted today. So glad to see that your fish like my breeding cones! You are quite the discus breeder, good luck with them all!

Wow, Rodrigo, just great news. I dont think I have ever hear dof five spawns in a day on Simply before. Is it a record? Now let's aim for five attachments....would make for an awesome photo-poster, among other things. Beautiful fish...I especially love those platinums. I just wish I have more tank room so I can get thoese offered by Bob. mike

OMG, I am so envious. How many gallons of tank space do you have, Ringo? Have your albinos spawned successfully before?

No tank space left here at all, it's all up to Bob to raise fry over at the estate! :) The Platinums have spawned before, the pinks are getting there, every week is a step closer to the goal!!!

Currently I have 4x20gal tanks, 1x30gal long, and 1xa25gal as wel as a 20gal over at my office at work.

Shoot, you have basicly no tank space whatsoever. I have more than you!!! You're very lucky to have a friend with a fish estate.
