Oh my god YES. Couldn't have picked a better pair of fish for the tank at the end of our bed. They're still dripping right now.

Thank you so much, brotha.

Yup, 100 root tabs were in there. HUGE thank you for that man, merry fishmas! Plants look good. Didn't get a chance to look closely but lots of vals and bacopa, didn't see if there was anything else but bacopa is my FAVORITE. I'm waiting till the lights come on in the 55 to mess with that. Thank you so much!

Around 4PM (3PM in your zone). I've got no finals today so I'm just doing fish stuff.

Buddy I've got the box set aside so that come spring you (and Amanda) can have your pick from their best offspring! It's the least we can do for you guys.

Seems like the pair lost a LOT of scales in shipping. Think I should do anything, or just wait and see?

Probably the USPS treating the package like crap? I don't know to be honest. Same thing happened with the last pair we got. I thought maybe it was our net, but we got a bigger net to remedy that.

Thinking I might do a preemptive salt treatment....

Aren't you glad you waited? It would've been a crying shame if you would have lost either of those fish due to impatience. In my book, it's ALWAYS better to be safe than sorry with fish.

Well I don't think they ever ended up spawning But I'm glad we waited anyway.
