Just got my discus in yesterday, after a day, they seem to be settled in and swimming about just fine. Ate a bit of beefheart yesterday, ignored brineshrimp this morning, and enjoyed some hakari discus pellets this afternoon. They seem very shy of me coming to near the tank, especially if I have a camera!

Anyhow, I got a few shots that weren't painfully blurry, so I thought I would post them here.

Sorry for the awful photography, Its a bowfront, and I don't have a good camera, so I was using a borrowed one, which I can't use well.

Thanks for the positive comments! The tank is a little small, but while they are still on the young side, I feel most comfortable with them in my 30g. Makes water changing more manageable so I can do them daily. Once they get bigger, they will move out into my 72 gal community, which is a pain to WC as often as I would probably need to.
