Week 12 and all 6 discus are doing well.
Like last week, the smaller of the group are catching up to the larger ones. Everyone gets their fair share of food.
All water parameters and food have remained the same.
This week I used an idea from Martha, mmorris, a paper cutout of a discus 4 1/2 " total length.
It is difficult to capture the true size of discus with a camera but with the cutout and sponge in back it's close.
Some of the discus are a little over 4 1/2 " some a little under. The most colored one is the smallest in the group.
Their growth has to slow because there is 9 more months of this competition.
Who knows maybe they will be starting a second generation by then.
