How do you communicate with Don Conkel? I have used his site and emailed questions numerous times and never have had a single reply. Do you just all him?

He can be hard to get a hold of. I just email him but sometimes it takes a while for him to get back to me.

The umbee has color and shape of the blue. Looks good jd. I like the block in the pond.

Thanks Reagan. The fish really love the blocks. The small holes give all of my crypto's in there cover and the big guys love swimming through or protecting the large holes. Are all the little guys I brought you doing well?

Hey, are you presoaking your blocks or just letting them raise the alkalinity?


They were stacked outside for about 3 months so I hoped they were pretty well conditioned already. I do a 50% water change on it ever week so anything they do leach out gets diluted pretty quickly. I was a little concerned about this but haven't had any trouble. My tap water is 7.4 and it is never higher then 7.5-7.6 at water change time so the blocks are not doing much.

So no, I didn't presoak them. Probably should have but I didn't really have a good place to do it. I figured aging outside would work just the same, but maybe not.
 
Did you get any pics of those Regani yet? My two juvi's I got them from Don in November have doubled in size already.
