Hi Biggie,
Where did you get the Blue Snakeskin, he looks nearly identical to a couple I have in my tank. Could be brothers.

Hi Biggie,
I picked it in one, same breeder as I got mine. Norm is a great guy and was been a great help to me when I was first getting into the Discus.
He has been doing this for a long time so He's a great sourse of information.

Looks good Biggie, I don't think the turqouise with the prominent 5th stress bar is from any of my stock, but is nice fish. In actuality true Heckels (Symphosodon discus) have a much wider centre bar than that. It is quite common for bars 1-5-9 to be prominent, sometimes continually displaying.

Hi Norm,
Good to see you are still around,
You are obviously still breeding, I will have to come around and have a look at youre current stock.
Have you managed to get to Egypt yet?
