    Get down there asap tomorrow if you want fish as they were released tonight.

    I managed to get the Alenquer Cross pair I was after.

    Thanks for the heads up, I got down there today and bought a bunch of them,

    Golden checkerboard piegon
    Leopard snake skin
    Blue face Browns
    Rafflesia

    Tank is pretty much fully stocked now, can maybe at best fit one or two more types in the tank. I know they have really good fish but I did a dose of the kursuri wormer plus as I don't have a spare quarantine tank.

    So will not add or change anything now for the next couple of months.

    One of my new pair is still a little timid to get into the biffo for food but I did see him eat some. They go nuts for the frozen bloodworm but haven't worked out the dry yet. I've upped the dry in the autofeeder from 2 to 3 times a day. It is all gone within 1-2 minutes and what lands on the sand the Sterbai are quick to clean up.

    Interesting to see Sunnyside are now close tomorrow, maybe the shipment is sold out.

    Possible there were a lot of people waiting to get fish when I was there Saturday, I'll wait till next shipment in a month or two and see what comes in then, still think I can fit a few more in lol.

    Not all of the ones I bought are eating yet but often new discus can take a week or more to start feeding so I wouldn't stress over a day at all. I got some of the LSS as well and they are so far being the most timid of my new ones.

    I bought some of those dried worm blocks and have been hand feeding the discus with them. Most of my older ones come up and eat out of my fingers now and in a week or so I reckon the new ones will too.

    It ate a few pieces of beef heart tonight, but yes very timid compared to the Fiamma Rosa which is roaming the tank like it owns the place.

    More?? Damn I need a bigger tank. but that will bring a devorce with it.

    My Flamingo Throwback did exactly that and is now the top discus of the pack.
