    What are the facts? Again and again and again--what are the facts? Shun wishful thinking, ignore devine revelation, forget what "the stars foretell", avoid opinion, care not what the neighbors think, never mind the unguessable "verdict of history"--what are the facts, and to how many decimal places? You pilot always into an unknown future; facts are your only clue.

      4 to 5 inch sub-adults. They moved right into the school and the adults immediately showed the newbies their place in the food chain.

          Not really...just pushed some and body slapped; typical dominance byplay with discus. Now they've figured out their place in the school and the alpha no longer feels the need to prove himself. Dan had some really beautiful greens again!

            You know I had to do that. Your tank is amazing and I bet they look great in there. When my tank grows up it's going to look just like yours!

              Thank you Karen, but your tank is gorgeous already. I'll try to get some pics up tonight.

                    Nancy, I showed Shadow and Sophie pics of you and FL while whispering, "choke chain, no treats, straight to the pound". They're both really mad at y'all right now...bring it on.

                    I took some pics of the new ones tonight...

                        They are Karen. The tank Alpha showed them their places in the school already and they are happy and eating.

                            I will bring my secret weapons, Merlin and Rascal, so Shadow and Sophie will be preoccuppied. Really, the Discus look great and very contented where they are, for now

                              It's always been a mix of fluorite and blasting sand. The sand has settled as the MTS have dug around. Good to see you still around Nap.
