Rios and Uatumas!

[creativityasaweapon]

Just got these guys 3 days ago. Settling in well, but I can't wait until they start showing their full colors. They are eating like pigs and aren't shy at all!

I ordered 4 rios and 4 uatumas, but unfortunately only two reds made it. Once out of the bag they fluttered to the bottom of the tank and never got back up

Beautiful, I love wild discus. Did you contact the seller about the two that died?

Yes I did and he righted the issue! No complaints. I realize that shipping wilds can be a different animal than even shipping domestics, so I hold no bad blood.
Next purchase on my list may be an RO system, given that almost all of Wisconsin's water is crap for these guys! So far they are doing quite well with homemade blackwater though, and this purchase is forcing me to settle down on the fish spending just a wee bit. (at least until I set my sights on a tig!)
