took a couple of pics

[Mattzilla]

i took some pics today and decided to use the macro setting on my camera with some ok results.

just thought i'd share them...

oh and i want to start a "wierdest place you discus have spawned cometition" because you'll see where my turq and ss decided to spawn tonight....crazy fish

[Mattzilla]

it's a shame cause you lose all the detail when i reduce the size of the pic


anyone who wants to see them in full size just pm me and i'll email them to you

some super macro shots

[Mattzilla]

a couple without flash...the flash washes out so much colour

That's the back of a digital thermometer stuck on the glass.

And hey, no contest - you win the "Wierdest place a discus can spawn" competition. Those pics are priceless.

flukes...unfortunately that is the tube laying the eggs

there are no males in the tank.....so all the eggs are going to waste....

not sure if you have seen the other threads but i have a really bad case of 'lesbain discus'...lol

this is doing my head in as they are laying almost every day between the four of them....in fact at the back of the tank behind these pics the red melon is guarding her batch of eggs from 2 days ago

[Mattzilla]

that is the baqck of a digital thermometer....bloddy tiny little thing...i couldn't believe my eyes when i say it cleaning it...stupid fish

flukes, there are about 30 or so good pics so i can't post them all.... had to cull some at least

[leanne31]

Ah see thats where I got confused my digital thermometer sits on the outside with a little probe that sits in the water :lol: Got to keep up the good blonde reputation though :wink:
