very nice discus.did you buy them from a breeder? what size tank , food regimine....................?
Thanks!
I bought some from Something Fishy {online} and bought 2 from Jans in Carson City. I was very hesitant to buy from Jans as they feed tubifex worms, but they are fine.
Tank is a 55g, I do 1/4 water change every day. They are on Mysis Shrimp and Beefheart and occasionally some bloodworms. Funny how they are, would only eat bloodworms, I broke that habit and they really go for the beefheart/mysis and just do some bloodworms for variety. They also do eat and enjoy Omega One flakes. I always try to mix it up when it comes to feeding to keep them happy.

They look very nice!! Good fat bellys on them too As they get older you may want to give them some plants, they just seem a little more comfortable with some plants.
