CBS Fish Tour (part 4): Visit to Fairy Lake Discus!

8/27/2013

0 Comments

 
Going to Fairy Lake is like going back in time. There are the old steel rimmed tanks filled with the classic aquarium fish. It is also one of the few stores to sell freshly hatched baby brineshrimp, so if I'm ever in a bind, I can run over and grab some. The resident cat is very sweet, and the elderly couple that runs the store is very conscientious  about making sure your fish make it home safely. They even re-bagged some fish with more oxygen and an outer bag once they found out that we were on a fish tour and were not likely to go home right away!

My favorite pic from this entire weekend - a pair of Kribensis. Dominant male in front, female in the back.
