oh holy hell dawn!

my grandfather is flying in from his home in hawaii in june......... Bad part is he will bring them with him if I ask LOL

 

sweet or sexy? bwahahaha

discus bring the sexy back.

yeah but I havnt been to hawaii since 1990. I should have been there the past two weeks with armed forces day and memorial day in pearl with him.(he is 2nd gen us army, great granfather was 1st gen, my dad was 3rd gen military 1st gen navy and I am 3rd gen army, basically its in our blood to serve)

 

its not HOT its moist but not overly humid, ocean breezes all the time.

 

try chicago in july/august, feels like an evening in the bayou.

San Diego was the best climate wise(crap to live due to cost of living) xmas morning we used to go surfing.

 

Just a little tease, click link in first post of this thread for more.

I apologize for the glare but this light system even when room lights are off and adjoining room lights are off gives off major light.

Dawn, this here ones for you.

notice left overflow.....a pair I didnt even know I had.
err two pics

 

ill post more pics tomorrow when I am done rescaping it. picked up about 100 bucks or so worth of plants for 10 bucks yesterday. lots of reds and purple plants.

 

9 is 4' wide right? and 30" tall and 24" deep if I recall right, We used to have one for a pleco and a texas cichlid when I was a wee lad.

yeah its coming along nice, the discus and angels get along just fine, they eat together and stuff which is really nice.

 

I got wigglers!!!!!!!!!!!

So two proven pairs of angels are in the 210 now......monday eggs were laid on the overflow, yesterday around 1pm a few hatched into wigglers. this morning, all eggs are gone only wigglers that were in the egg patch were relocated to a sword leaf.

I have never seen them hatch in a community tank and I have never seen ANY fish protect its bed the way these two are, the camera is their arch enemy.

Did you get some postal mail from me yet, dawn?

 

they were all gone today, they moved em from the overflow to the sword leaf, I came back down an hour or so later to haul the build tools up to the garage and they were all gone, what is funny is my OG pair the original angel pair ive had for years decided to lay yesterday as well, they ate em last night, I dont think they are a truly bonded pair but have been spawning for the better part of two years now multiple times weekly.

I know I will have more I think they are cleaning that same leaf off again.
Whats funny is I bought the cichlid rocks complete kit was like 65 bucks at kens and not a single ram is using them, instead they have dug craters in the substrate and are bedding down there. I can say one thing, this AP.com black diamond substrate is 100% bottom dweller/burrower safe. its so flipping light and just isnt sharp enough to hurt anything. I also got to see my banjo cats late late last night around 1130 or so, they were doing laps, they have grown a good inch already since I bought them, this is the 4th time I have seen them in over 60 days.
