Here is the best picture I could get, it is about 1/3 of the tank and they all kind of posed. The female who spawned a couple days ago is the big one, front right. These fish are gorgeous, and even more so in person. What do you think? They are about 11 mo. old.

They look beautiful Barb. Were they all the same size when you bought them? I absolutely love the sea green coloration, very attractive!

Thanks Daniel, they were all about 2" last Nov. when they got here. 2 are growing slowly, but they are just as beautiful and healthy as the rest of the bigger ones. I grow for health and beauty, huge size is unimportant to me. If they get to 5" or so I am good. Excellent health is very important besides beauty. I am really enjoying this group. My favorite of all the discus before them, I have had discus off and on for about 30 years.

That's cool Barb. I agree that health and shape are the Paramount features of good discus. Some of the contest fish that we're rapidly grown got a bit disproportionate at times. Your guys do look fabulous, their color is amazing, and the patterns are sweet as well. Love to see update pics as you post them. Cheers mate
