zulaab,

The pics looks great! Are all these wild caught?

[eklikewhoa]

Re: Saturday Trip to Texas Tropheus Traders - College Statio

If I'm not mistaken the only one not wild is the last one.

Thor -- I am pretty sure all are wild caught, and EK is correct, the last picture is of a juvenile born there.
Bethestaboy will need to say for sure since its his store.

Re: Saturday Trip to Texas Tropheus Traders - College Statio

Tattoo, they look better but because we constantly walked past the tank (its the bottom tank in a rack) they kinda got spooked all the time.  If I had had more time I would have put the big 75-300mm lens on it and taken pictures from a distance.  Each time someone got close you could see the colors fade out.
If you can put them in a 7ft 210 (like Tim has) then you will really see how they light up a room.
Maybe you should not sell your tank now :)   Set it up and get some of those cyps.

Re: Saturday Trip to Texas Tropheus Traders - College Statio

well i was really wanting to do a planted tank but i fill that maybe a 210 is to much to start with... plus about a arm and a leg for substrate and setup cost...

The fish were fantastic...too bad the Stros lost.

Tim,

I will be making a call to you soon.

Quoc,

Glad to know you liked the Petro I picked.  Good deal man...I should've remembered about the pumps.

Oppps...

Anyone going to College Station this weekend. Sunday?? I am thinking about a trip to Houston this weekend. If any of you guys /gals go on Sunday morning and return by 12-2 in the afternoon, that would be great. I can give you some gas money if you bring back the fish I got from Mike.

please pm me by Thursday afternoon so I can start making plans

Thanks

Phung,

There is a very slim chance I might go there this Saturday.  If I do I will let you know.

You pay gas.  The roundtrip is 230 miles from my place in Pasadena.  My Truck gets about 16 MPG on Highway.

That is atleast 15 gallons at $4.00 per gallon.  That makes $60.

Re: Saturday Trip to Texas Tropheus Traders - College Statio

I was thinking of getting the mean *** mpimbwe redcheek to see if I could try to integrate him before Mike throws him to the Polyodon tank.
