Oh, I'm sure he is a dragon, I just wish it wouldn't cost me an arm and a leg to have him shipped! lol

Just an update on Acheron/Cerberus =) Colored up well. He may end up going orange in the body with black koi spots and he and my female VT in the tank next to him have a thing going on ^^:

A few more shots of the girls. Some more flaring and chasing tonight, but so far everyone's doing okay =)

[Syriiven]

Today I did water changes on nearly all the tanks. The sorority took the most time and the girls wouldn't leave my gravel vacuum alone >.< Very curious and playful meanwhile still flaring and chasing eachother around.

I also think the blue male that was in there has disappeared...or is dead and I couldn't find him. >.< I hope he shows up soon. I know there's one more small guy in there with orange/red fins. If they weren't so small and young I wouldn't leave them in there, but it warmer in there than in my heater-less qt tanks. Hopefully I can find a home for him soon.

Now for pic spam!

Wow! Mickey is so spoilt in that beautiful chi! I have "gray tones" from peatland for my chi's gravel, and it is really nice. It's a blend of black, white and brown pebbles.

I should've gone black gravel...it looks real nice in Sylvannas' tank. I figured since he was a fish worth breeding he ought to get a little spoiled - as I most likely won't be breeding him but fell in love with him when Sena brought him home. But, if ever there was a day...I know VT's aren't the 'thing' to breed, but I'd love to see if someday I could match him with Sylvannas and see what happens. I think DTVT's are the prettiest things ever!

Update: doing 100% changes on the triplets and Acheron, the riverstones and glass beads I used have something on them. Subtle chemical smell that makes me think of paint. So just normal gravel and lots of rinsing for them.

Everyone else who is new is doing fine. Demi (Swim-bladder disabled sweetie) developed dropsy =/ So Kalec (who has popeye still?) may end up with her tank. But they're both still in qt. I really, really want everyone to just be kay and give me a few days to breathe tho...

You have done a tremendous amount of work in a short time. I always have to be careful because wc time seems to be play time and I dont want to suck them up. When adding water mine love to play in the bubbles and go with the flow. Acheron looks great, glad he found a girlfriend already. It really looks really good and I hope you get time to slow down for awhile.

Thanks Logisitcs! Wouldn't have been able to do it if I hadn't taken my paid day off today. - I also have a small gravel vacuum, so not much sucking power and it atleast allowed me to get around some of the decor in that cluttered sorority >.<

Love your new display pic btw =D

Omgosh, I just now got to sit down xD But now everyone's tanks are fantastic! here's proof! (more pic spam, xD)
