Featured the newest Discus in the Friday email but now that they've had a few days to settle in their color is really starting to pop. This is one of the 2-2.5" Leopards

Hey Folks,

well I certainly hope the change in temperature is helping sales for those of you in cooler weather states. We're even seeing a significant temperature drop around here. Getting down into the 60s at night. Time to break out the the ear muffs and scarves lol. But cooler temps often result in more foot traffic as people tend to spend more time indoors working on their hobby.

Got in some nice restocks over the weekend, most impressive of which have to be the Longfin Serpae Tetras. This could possibly be the biggest I've seen come through here. Not only is the size fantastic but the color and finnage are equally impressive. Galaxy Rasboras came in late last week so unfortunately we didn't have time to include them in Friday's email but just like that the last several batches the size is very nice on these and you can see their intricate spotted pattern without the use of a magnifying glass. We also managed to come up with some more EB Jacks so if you got scratched on them last week you've got another shot at them this week.

Some local favorites also hit the tanks this weekend. Got in another batch of Managuense aka Jaguar Cichlids. These adorable little beauties may grow up to be absolute terrors but that doesn't stop them from being one of the best selling Central/Southies there is. On the opposite end of the spectrum German Blue Rams continue to come in as about as spectacular as they get. Size is still great as is the color. German Blacks are equally as impressive. For Africans we got restocked on Albino Compressiceps. I've never been a huge fan of most albino variants when it comes to Cichlids but this is one of the most impressive even at a small size. And we still have a handful of large Rustys which are about as purple of a fish as you're gonna get in freshwwater.

Reach out to your rep if you have any questions.

Like I mentioned above the newest batch of Discus to come in have had a chance to settle and these are turning out to be some of the best we've had in a bit. All are of good size and color Pictured here is a 2-2.5" Pigeon Blood.

If for whatever reason you've never brought in Electric Blue Jack Dempseys there's no time like the present. Not only are these considerably more attractive than their natural occurring counterparts they are also considerably less aggressive. This often tends to be the case with recessive gene color morphs.

Managuense aka Jaguar Cichlids (21115) got another restock today. Wish we could get these at little bit bigger size but it doesn't seem to matter since these fly out of here every time they hit the list.

Down to just a handful of large Rustys and as the temps start to drop so will the size on a number of Florida raised items so if you're wanting something size and color for not a lot of money this is the time to buy.

Got in fresh batch of Albino Compressiceps in this week and I have to say ever since we started getting a steady supply of these there hasn't been a ton of demand for the regular variant.

Galaxy Rasboras continue to remind us why they are one of if not the most popular nano fish in the world.

Got a handful of Exodons still available. While they don't necessarily play well with others they do make for an impressive species only display.

Regular size Lemon Blue Eyes are on hand for anyone looking for a budget friendly "Fancy Pleco".

4-Line Pictus Cats got a restock last week and are running at a very nice size.

Got in regular Black Ghost Knives (3251) too late last week to make the list but we should have plenty to go around.
