    Before I switched hosts there was a user on here that kept Discus'. He had quite a few tanks with breeding pairs.

    lol camera was a cheap one 100 bucks from walgreens a poloroid

    now the discus believe it or not i have only bought 4-5 the rest are ones that people jumped on bought and then said Oh i didnt know they were that much trouble and ended up stunting the fish and giving them away free to start fresh with the knowledge on how to keep discus

    I wish people would give them to me for free. Love these fish!!! No saltwater fish (other than the lionfish) can compare to these guys.

    I have a Discus/Angelfish tank too. I dont have any problem. As a matter of fact my Lemon Discus beats up the Angels and all of my Discus push their way in to eat!

    Nice Discus by the way!

    Re: trying again

    ooooooHHHHHHHH is that one of your discus as yer avater?
    i always go for the unusual discus heavy peppering or not quite the shade of blue.
    ATM i am talking with a guy who has a 150 gal tank <yes i know i just sold the 125> havent nailed a price down yet but with the tank comes 4 wilds and 4 PB discus and some loaches and plecos...just wish i cold find affordable bushynose plecos.
    I'll have to upddate the discus tank pics and if i luck out and get the 150 i post some of it.

    Yes that is one of my 5 discus. The one that is my avitar is my oldest and he is about a year and a half old. My next oldest are my Mayan Jade and my Blue Turq which are about 9 months old and then the 2, 6 month old babies that are Santarem Discus
