(again apologies for the blurriness)

[Cory21]

WOW! :shock: They are all absolutely stunning! I like the "wash" in them, and how they aren't flecked with other colours.

[Annie]

MM, those are sooo beautiful.
Just fantastic!! I am sooo jealous. Those Melons are so pretty in color.
I think the red marlboro or the melons would do just fine in MY tank with MY Blue Diamonds...
Whatcha think mm, you want to over night them to me? LOL :wink:

[Essayons89]

OMG!!

Dude, those are some super, awesome discus!! Thanks for sharing the pics. It's going to take me a while to pick my jaw up off of the floor.

Bryan

[tennhound]

First of all why are they called Ocean Greens when they aren't green? Do they get a green color to them when they get older? (remember I said 50 million question).

By the way they are beautiful. I love them. They don't help my addiction to wanting Discus any. Thanks M_M for sharing the pics.

[Lily]

MM, I absolutely fell in LOVE with those bunga rayas when I was in SLS not that long ago. I am so pleased that firstly these ones have gone to a good home and secondly that I can now look at the pictures instead of just dreaming about them. Which I have been doing, ever since.

LISA!!! stick to your colour scheme, you made a commitment when you set up that tank!! Blue fish only, blue fish only! Sorry, talking to myself :P

[Proteus]

Marie, the angle and lighting dont show there true colour... and remember, when you look at the ocean, it is not really green, and not really blue... confused???? good... lol

Lily, they are gorgeous... I plan to get some more, and fingers crossed, down the track they will breed... so maybe Blue might have to have a slight tinge of red...

:wink:

[Proteus]

wiil take and post some pics later, but picked up some awesum looking Wild blood based Pearl Turquoise Discus last night...

The family grows.

[kevkoi]

It's the angle and lighting of the photograph as well.... These were pictures taken at SLS.... Don't they look pretty green? The 'Green' will get better with time.

[Proteus]

...so Kev, could you be implying that the Melon in that pic, is the from the breeding stock that my liitle pair came from???

(drool is overflowing)

[Annie]

Towel here is sopping wet...
****Annie runs to get her 5 gal bucket****..the drooling was getting out of hand...OMG!!!

[Proteus]

...do you need another bucket yet Aniie???

:roll:

[Annie]

I think I will probably need a couple...you know, while I am drooling in one..I can dumpthe other...LOL.

[Proteus]

Here is another close up of one of my Ocean Greens...

Thanks to SLS I have another 2... does it ever end???

[Annie]

I am turning green..........with envy!!!

[flukes]

Kev,
Have you got a pic of one of those ocean greens as an adult??, id like to see how green the actually get or if its a better bet to get a royal green.

Cheers
Scott

[Proteus]

Ocean Green, means more an aqua type colour, not bright green or anything...

trust me, having 4 of these beauties in my tank is awesum... you would not be disappointed, and the shape is much better than the Blue Diamond as kev pointed out to me in the store (comparing the subtle differences, proved the greens have a better shape)

[tennhound]

Okay now that I have gotten caught up looking at you "new" babies I still say you have to many and you need to bring them to me when you go to the ACA in July. I have plenty of room and promise to take good care of them for you.

Yes I understand about the color now. No I am no longer confused.

MARIE

[Annie]

uumm, wait a minute Tennhound...I think I get first dibs on any if he has too many. Maybe he ought to send me a Bunga...

[Proteus]

No fighting please Ladies... we may have visitors... :wink:

trust me, if I could swing some your way I would...

[Annie]

I know you would. But htere has to be some fun in teasing you too... I mean, we are all jealous of those wonderful babies you have.

[Proteus]

oh....

How do you think I feel knowing that there are a bunch more just a few km's (miles) away at SLS...

maybe a bank loan could be in order...

lol

[Annie]

Now thta is an idea. Then you could start youe own "Baby Factory"...

[Proteus]

brew3...

I moved your Red Melon pics as they were so good, they needed there own attention...

Thx

[Proteus]

The Family is growing... (again)

just added 2 beautiful Mosaic RSG's...

(courtesy of Oxheart)

pics will be added soon.

[luvfishies]

Jesus H Murphy, man, those Melons are stunning!

The greens would show their colour much better with a flash on the camera (trust me on this, that's the only way I can show the colours on my greens to any decent effect)

**drool**......I gotta 135g here empty just waiting for some more discus and altums........

[Annie]

More "new' babies!!! OMG... :D Too coll...Seriously, The Family does seem to be getting bigger. The more the merrier, I am still just jealous. :wink:

[Proteus]

I will be breaking them up into various tanks over the coming weeks...

the two Snakeskin/Leopards are in a tall 2ft tank

I will be placing the 2 large Reds in the 68g (4ft'r)

the juvies will all be going in the 95g (4ft'r)

then done the track break them up again if pairs start to form etc...

[Proteus]

Updated pics... including the 2 new acquisitions...
