 THere are 5 taiwans currently, and only one angelfish. Is there anyone interested in getting in the angelfish competition? only one spot for the taiwans.......who wants it? RedTiger?

 fish
my mom would like to do the angels her name is penny and would be best to set this up for delivery and pick up at the grill out?


i have been told the fishing is outstanding at brushy creek and everyone is catching average 14 in crappies there! maybee a site for the grill out? its near fort dodge/iowafalls area.


just an idea on my part i did a preliminary count and scoped what i believe to be 45 fish, all fish are from the same spawn from 3 diffrent females and 2 males all in same tank. they have been in a 20 long since they came out of the breeder net by-weekly 25% water change fed a variety of spirulina,danichi color supreme baby and jnj aquatics fry growout blend. all fish range from 1-1/2 to 2 in i will full fish from the net and put in glass measuring jars to try and get an even equal mix for everyone. when we get to the place we will swap out i will bring 2 extra bags and you can take your pick by lottery .

best of luck and grow grow.

and we should look at the next group to do this with.

looks like maybee i might have some cypts, for the next challenge(maybee)

 Thanks for the info.

Also, just to clear things up... Brushy Creek is just a little SE of Ft Dodge.

 I would rather have pick up arranged at the next swap..........But Brushy Creek sounds like an amazing place to have a cookout! Been there several times, love that place! they say it has freakish growth rates.

Check cook out thread

If you have any of the Atifrons for the next swap I would love to pick up a nice group. PM me when you have time.

Brushy Creek sounds like a nice place. Give me the address so I can put it in to GPS. Thats so I don't get lost. Also need a date when you have it.

 If we want to go with smaller taiwans, I have some friends who are willing to donate some small fry around the 3/4" mark.

They aren't free swimmers yet, but should be by the 10th. Will be very small though.

 There are spots available!

1 taiwan reef slot
3 angelfish slots

I can't stress enough how everyone wins in this. You get a great group of fish for minimal charge, and an opportunity to snatch up several rare and exotic species through or BAP auction!
