well my discus breeder didnt show up agen he has a $400 canister a blue diamond i paid $50 deposit witch he hasn't given me yet grrrrr so angry been waiting for about 2 months now. 2 think i thort he would be safer then buying over the internet. well the background is all ready holes made stand is done im just trying 2 find the right silicone.

[BABYJIZAY]

Looking good so far!! Where'd the background come from?

[stoneface]

the background was not branded in english lol i cannot even find any other picks of in on the internet. it comes only is 3f 4f 5f 6f 10f size lol. now i was worried that the quality would not be as good as some of the wll known brands the store owner has ashore me of its quality and said if it starts to flake or anything i will get a full refund cash$$.

i 2day got my ehime ecco pro( i run another one of these in my other 4f the model is great love it so much and so do my discus)
still need to get silicone.

today i got my other blue diamond yay he also threw in a jebo 819 canister for free yay does any1 have one of these do they work well?? the blue diamond looks great nice colour red as red eyes he is a little smaller then the female i have but i think it will work. the tank silicone is still drying on the tube it says it needs to dry for 7 days. piks will come as soon as he is settled in and eating.

sadly the bd i bout is not doing as well as i wish it looks good and healthy but doesn't seem to be adapting to its qt tank very well.

just pics of the tank now wile its cycling. also pics of the in and out holes for the canister(ehime eco pro 300) works great silent as a mouse and has great power.

[William Palumbo]

Is there a Discus hidden in those pics somewhere? I'm not seeing it...Bill

[dbfzurowski]

Good morning guys,
Joshua, it looks pretty darn good! It that a live plant in the tank or reflection?

[Jennie]

he's just cycling still

[William Palumbo]

Ahhh...OK...Bill

Tank is looking good but you should explain what wrong with the blue diamond so we can help before things get too bad. Fill out the questionnaire in the disease section.

[joshua 74]

well im not thinking to much of it he is alone in a 80L tank alone im thinking he is just being a sookie discus because he is alone. it is a fake plant tank is still sycoling without any fish i have just dumped some food in there.

[joshua 74]

well back to school/ and tafe have less hours at work means that things are on halt for a lil bit now. but i still have news and some questions NEWS the new bd has eaten its first meal here (blood worm) she eat the hole square tomorrow i will be pooshing beefheart to her becauce she has lost quite a bit of fat her colour has come out more starting to look like a nice fish agen. also in my tank im c the gravel/sand is crushes cilicaline cilica sand i would like to know if i can have aquarium plants in this eg valis???

[joshua 74]

finally i have added both blue diamond to my new tank. tank water is great and i added them both at once. im hoping to add more plants just valis i think some driftwood also thinking about adding some darker small rocks around the plants to try make them stand out more. i will post some piks as soon as i can.
