Behind the Steel Curtain

Lee, Where are you?

Hey good people, I'm doing well, it's just been a busy, wet spring here, rains 2 or 3 times a week and never has really warmed up and the mountains still get snow every day, dampest spring here that I can ever remember and the temps are still in the mid 70's is all.

The baseball season finally ended, with Bishop winning their first state championship since 1969 so I was busy with that, The athletic director didn't like that I tossed the Bishop coach the third to last game of the season and tried to "black ball" me and another umpire from doing Bishop games, long story, but we got that cleared up, I still have "friends in high places" LOL.

Family, tanks and other animals are all doing well, though I need to do a good cleaning on all filters as I'd like to place an order with TWS while the weather holds, they have some fish that I'd love to fill some schools with or keep once again.

I have been checking in and it seems to still be a little slow here, but as school winds down, less than two weeks left, I will try to get on and catch up with you all, it's nice to know I was missed

Thanks for the update, friend. I'm glad to hear you're doing well.

It is nice that you've got friends willing to stand up for you. I am certain that you made the fair call, and happy that the athletic director couldn't throw a fit and make it stick. You are a fair man.

I'll look forward to finding out what you'd like to order from TWS. The end of the school year is a bit crazy.

It's always good to hear from you Lee.

Thanks for chiming in Lee, and congrats on the state championship

Nice to hear from all of you as well. @RG here's a new one that TWS has in stock that I've not seen before: https://www.wetspotgallery.com/p266375725/hC9DF3A03. They also have Flame tetras in their original form finally and Loreto tetras, I need to fill my Red phantoms still, Marble hatchets, Green neons, Costello tetras and probably Dwarf pencilfish. I'm going to try and get filters cleaned this week so I can place an order with my hard earned umpire money for next week.............

Ooooo That Acaciensis is very pretty! Really love the green on him! Your order already sounds dreamy and you haven't even gotten your list firmed up yet.

Wow Lee, what a great list and I am glad to read the Loretos are back. Really want those guys again and maybe able to get them in a month or so. The Acaciensis is a real beauty. I have to look up its water parameters and see if I can't get them in a tank as well...hmm can't seem to find it-just get referenced to the purple tetra/ metae.

Yeah, I could find nothing on them either, if the are similar to the metae, that would be great as the ones I got two years ago have proved to be a hardy and active fish.
