Got some 2.5 - 3 inch babies on Sunday from Tony (Sunrise Tropicals/mrdiscus) and am pretty impressed with them! 5 2.5 inch Red Spotted Green, 2 3 inch Snow Leopards, 1 Blue Andaconda and 1 3 inch Dickson Gold (Actually got him 2 weeks ago)! Enjoy the pics and please post opinions or what not!

Nice fish. I really was interested in red spotted greens. Will be interesting to follow their development. Congrats on the new additions.

Yes. I could never take a perfect side view pics of them so the slight angle makes them look a little pointy but they actually have a pretty good round shape to them.

Thanks ND! I'm impressed with the little guys too! Some are already showing awseome shape! Had to get at least 1 Blue Andaconda because of Tony's website pics looked so promising. Was not disappointed! He's in pic 2 and 9!

I never heard of BA but like it very much. They look very happy and healthy in your tank. Nice addition.

Blue Andaconda is fancy for Royal Green Spotted Snakeskin :-)

Please keep us updated, it would be interesting to see how one of the World's Top Notch breeder(Dickson) looks later as it matures.

You do that too? I can't seem to get decent pic with the camera pointing straight at the tank, so I angle it a bit and generally catch my fish swimming away from me....which makes them look a lot less round than they really are. But oh well, we both know how CD disk round they are, right Moon? =)

Congrats on those gorgeous babies!
