Hi All, new to the forum, Posted a Hi yesterday and said I would add some more pics of my tank and Discus too. Comments and advise is welcomed, but Please nice, constructive comments please. The Discus are new (ish) to my tank, got them a couple of weeks ago from LPS, bought as "assorted" so unsure on strains/type. They are doing really well, settled nicely, out and swim freely with their tankmates- even show my Ram pair who are the boss!! The redder of the pair will now almost hand feed on Bloodworms and seems the less shy of the two. Please be assured I know these two are not of "show standard", the red one had the lesser markings towards the tail (bought this way but noticed later) but are still much admired "pets" :blushing:

Hi Liz and welcome to Simply. Perhaps it would be best to direct you to some threads which will allow you to do some research on your discus. Here are some links you may be helpful

http://forum.simplydiscus.com/showthread.php?125704-Beginner-s-Guide-to-Getting-Started-with-Discus.

The first one is a video done by Al who is the owner of this forum and he talks about discus basics. It is about an hour but well worth the watch. The second is a nice "how to" discus guide. I would also suggest reviewing the stickies on the beginners part of the forum. You can find those here http://forum.simplydiscus.com/forumdisplay.php?48-Discus-Basics-for-Beginners.
