I've been having discus for about 6 months now and it seems my two largest aren't as big anymore. I hope it's because the other 3 are catching up! I know they've grown quite a bit but could swear the 2 bigger ones were bigger. Anyone ever notice a healthy one get smaller?

As the other ones grow bigger your biggest fish will look smaller even though they have grown a little or not at all... That's the magic of our eyes... Only way to really confirm is to pull them out an measure...

a sick discus will shrink/waste away.length doesnt change that much but it will slowly thin out making it look alot smaller if it gets to pinched forhead then its real bad.i hope its just ur other fish growing but if not the faster u catch it the better off u are.
