Hi Folks,

My names Kenny, 27, live in Scotland.
Just started keeping Discus 4 weeks ago, but been keeping fish for a little longer.
Current discus tank is 180ltr Juwel Bow front, internal juwel filter and additional Ehiem filter, 15% water changes every 2-3 days.
Current inhabitants are 2 Red Turquoise (4") and 3 Red Eagles (2") along with some dither fish. This is a my display tank so it is planted a little and has a sand substrate.
Been lurking on your boards for 2 months now and thought that it was about time I joined.
Hope to speak to you all soon

Cheers

Kenny

Hi Kenny:

Yeah, got some not bad images, just need to figure out how to post them here, not the most pc literate ;D

Water in my area is quite soft, both KH & GH at the 3° mark, PH is the only thing thats a little off, sitting bang on neutral, but only intend changing that if I think it may be causing stunting or if I'm luck enough to get a breeding pair

Cheers

Kenny

sounds good to me. no reason to change your ph. stable is best. some even raise fish in the 8's for ph.
if you have your pics on your harddrive. its exactly like adding an attachment on your email.
go to below where it says attach. click your cursor. then click browse. find your pic and click attach. easy as pie.
if its too big it will tellyou. then you need to resize.
if so..someone on here can help you with that.
