Thanks to all who post here!!! New to Discus but really having fun!!

[Ed Gray]

I just want to thank all that post here. I am new to discus (been going about 5 months now) but have been doing fresh and saltwater for over 30 years. I have read most every post for the last 3 months. Its been lots of help.
Im now trying my hand at getting a pair to breed.

I currently have 5 tangerine Discus and a pigeon blood that are all over 5 inchs in a bare bottom 55 waiting for one pair hopefully soon. It looks like i have one male out of the group.
I have a seperate 29 ready to go when i get a pair.

I also have a 56 column and a 65 set up and started with some smaller discus and some cory's

I have an RO water system and a 40 gal holding tank and a 40 aquairum for holding water.

I will post some pics soon. But again thanks to all who post I really get alot from all of them.

Hi all All my disucs came from shops with in a 3 hour drive or from some guys who posted them on web sites.
I know they dont have the name of some top breeders but they are very nice and I like them and thats all that matters to me
I will put up pics soon but i have to have at least 10 post to be able to do that.
Not sure why?? A new guy cant put any pics or link to pics. So I guess I will just wait.

keep posting anything and then shoot the pics up. im 3 months new as well for the discus thing. my last tank was a 90 reef and even with doseing calcium among other things this discus side seems a bit more work. lol. im having fun though.
