Good looking puppy. There is a cute stray that lives somewhere by the McDonalds here. A fenced off & closed movie theater is where he lives in the overgrown bushes i think. Can't even get close to him but he seems very nice & smart. I think a lot of people try to catch him every morning & feed him from a distance. Something is wrong with his paws but no one can get to him. A few weeks ago I saw animal control using nets to try & catch him but he was too fast. I was hoping he would get away because they'll just kill him. At least out here he has a chance. A small chance but thats better than none.

Here's a pic of some fish I raised this past year .
I posted them earlier in this thread some months back, they are quite a bit bigger and have developed a lot more color.
They are about as big as a grapefruit or a large orange.
They are called discus and come in dozens of different colors variety.
I have the parents too.

Wow! Those fish are awesome. I could watch a fish tank all night. So soothing. All I've ever had myself is a beta. Fucker lived for like 3 years too.“Great losses often bring only a numb shock. To truly plunge a victim into misery, you must overwhelm him with many small sufferings.”Comment

I can assure you these fish weren't there. The wild type of this fish comes from tributaries of the amazon river in South America .
They do get confused with being a saltwater fish but are not.
They are the king of the aquarium and through extensive breeding come in many colors.
They are the most colorful freshwater fish.

I never had a fish tank, I always thought that it would be very complicated. Trying to learn about Discus, I found this very informative video about Discus Aquarium Tips, from Jacobs Aquarium.
Discus seems no very complicated to rise, and check Jacobs t-shirt and little bird, I don´t know the name in english, but it looks like a little parrot.

I've never been to Tahiti, Darnit!

Tahiti is INCREDIBLE! Once you've been there it's easy to see why Dave loves it so much. I've only been once, but my brother has been 5 times. I hope to make it back one day, but I would need to win a lottery first.

I hope that the stray dog would survives, we don´t have animal control here, and animals have a terrible life and death, but you can´t imagine the number of abandoned animals we have living in the streets, most of them are killed by cars. There are some private shelters who rescue the injured animals, and they heal them, they don´t euthanize any dog, they have the "Disabled Club", there are dogs with only two legs, quadriplegic, blinds. etc. It´s heartbreaking, but the dogs are so happy!!! And some good people adopt them. Here is a photo of a volunteer and some of the disabled dogs.

They are very different looking as a wild fish but still neat looking.
There is a lot of history regarding discus fish, they are near impossible to breed as wilds.
Only a few people have done it with the heckles.
The domestics are much easier to breed but still require huge upkeep.
They require huge water changes daily to keep them healthy and growing.
Any slacking will result in football shaped fish, they are supposed to be round, which is where the name discus comes from.
If you ever plan on trying to keep them go to a website named daah discus as a hobby, and talk to John Nicholson or Liz, they give good advice.
They are easy to keep but require lots of new water, I use 300 gallons of water a day.
Thanks for the compliment

Collectors would and still often immediately remove the parents from the tank to protect the baby fish from canibalism.
But, it seems that the Discus adult parent fish have a slime coat on thier bodies that the fry live off of and without it they won't survive to the age where they can accept other foods.
I never had Discus fish they aren't a community type fish with the agressive species I also had...they are cool looking.2015 once smoke 2 smoke ...poke

Here are a few pics and video's
This is the adult female guarding her eggs.
This is a picture of the fry hanging on the parent fish's sides.
They eat the secretion that the parents secrete on their bodies, they must eat it to survive. they are the only fish that do this.
Heres a video of the fry and parents, they were about 2 days free swimming. There were approximatly 170.
Another at 10 days
This was them at about 1.5 months
Ill post pics in about 6 months when they are adults and have developed their full colors.Comment

Pancho is a very nice dog, he is always playing and chews everything he finds.
