Title: Warmer spring weather ...
Post by: Mugwump on March 05, 2014, 06:22:39 PM
...will be arriving soon.....what does everyone have available to ship? 

Looks like we'll have some misc fry...both Angels and bristle nose plecos...I may have a Koi pair, or two...and likely a pair of blacks?...a pair of Manacapuru crosses...various Pinoy's and PB fry/juvie's..some Plat fry...Plat pair....etc....

What's on the bargain block out there folks... ;D  If you're going to try shipping, springtime is the best to do first...

You already know.  Now you're making me tell the world?  Fine...

I got this bad virus from a Discus importer.  The Angels were extremely resistant, but not immune.  I didn't loose the first Angel.  Some never got sick!  It was a different story with the Discus.  I really don't want to get into the details.  I'll know for sure that my fish are clean when I get test fish from Hans.  Hansie was around in Holland back in the days when Discus Plague was wiping everyone out.  He's seen time and time again that with a bad virus, that if you remove symptomatic fish as they appear and keep up good daily WC that the virus will have nothing to feed on and disappear in 6  months.

My 6 months will be up May 1st.  I need to introduce a clean Stendker Discus and wait 3 weeks to see if it gets sick.  If the Hans fish doesn't get sick I'll be good to go.  So there!

OK....I was just thinking along the lines of the post, after mine, that you made about the half black fry.....that actually answered my question. I knew the other issue was pretty well resolved...you'd have had more problems by now if it had lingered...imho...
