hmmm, 1st release. maybe we shouldn't get the 1st release of the Stream2's

We aren't getting the 1st release. Tunze tested the nanos here in the states and that is why we had to work through them with Roger. This time around, they have already began testing them to make sure they will be ready for our market

They are a pretty fish. I stopped into see Peggy today looking for a specific product and for the price I got on this guy, I could not pass it up

 

[tbone28]

damn you! I want one of dose!
Who's Peggy? Another LFS I need to visit?

 

[mpoletti]

I just got done acclimating him into his new home. Now its time to hope and pray that he decides to burrow somewhere that is visible and easy to shoot.

Peggy is the owner of Ost. They are really close to my house and it is an easy exit on the way home.

That is partially because I am using a flash that reflects off the white bucket. Those wild pictures never do fish their true justice.

Thanks for the PM Mark!!

Here is an old photo of that Chalice just days after arrival. Pic is a little dark as well.

 

[mpoletti]

Wow, Thanks Rob. You can really see the white around the edges and the green eyes.

with every addition, you tank keeps getting better and better!! Reap the fruits of your labor my friend... I got to make a trip out to check it out. It's looking sweet!

 

[eagleONE]

And another thing... where are you getting all the sweet deals from?!?! man... it's like your the king pin with all the LFS.

 

[mpoletti]

Thanks for the compliment. Now that you are finished with school, you will definitely have to come on through.

Don't worry about it Pete. Some of these threads can really move along. I stopped getting emails on my own threads awhile ago
