I'm in trouble...

I told myself that I will not get some discus yet because Of all the projects I'm working on...

But then I said, what the heck! What's one more tank! Might as well...

My newest addition in my Fish Room...Pigeon Snakeskin Pair

They're a nice pair of Pigeons but I don't see any Snakeskin in them.  If you don't mind me asking where did you buy them?

Got them from a guy who bought them from Chicago Discus about 10 months ago. He said that's what they were  sold as.

The difference can be subtle.  The Pigeon/Snakes have a finer pattern.  You have a very good quality pair of Discus.  I just don't see SS.

Thanks Liz. Appreciate it.

I do like the shape of them and I know I got a great deal when I bought them. We'll see how they do...both of them are already cleaning the cone.

Eggs were gone the next day. I'm not planning on removing the eggs and hatching them myself...that just a lot of work.

They'll get it....someday 🙂
