All in all, the packaging was great, the discus have been doing well so far. A few still have some clamped fins, but this is to be expected. It has been a few hours since I got them in and they are freely moving about the tank now. Color is coming back nicely. Of course we always tell everyone not to take photos of discus as soon as they arrive, but seriously, who can resist? Not I, says I, so enjoy the following photos:

I honestly can not remember if these were all pics of the same fish, lol. I don't quite know them yet. I hope you enjoy the vid and the pics. More coming whenever the settle in.
beautiful fish! I enjoyed the video even with no sound (im at work) what a clean and neat looking tank you have there, those fish should feel like they are in a pharmaceutical plant everything is so white and sterile looking. enjoy your fish!
Very nice Piwow Turqs, Rick. I'm jealous, now you need to save me a pair hahaha

Nice group you have Rick!! They all look beautiful. Looking forward to following their changes through your fine photography.
Lol, thanks. I ran with the white theme, I will admit. I can't wait to add sand and DW though. Hopefully they all grow another 1"-1.5" and then I can hardscape.
You need to get those 2 pairs so I can gawk at your Piwows!
Thank you for the nice words Rich. My hope is to just get at least 1 of my turqs anywhere near the turq you have on your avatar. Nothing but heavy feeding and WC from here on out.... :crazy:
This is the first time we got a play by play of the discus we sent out, I absolutely love the video. They will be great in your hands and care :). We included a free fish in this order as pre our conversation. This was the last male we had and wanted to send him with the four females. He is perfect but slightly beaky so thats why he was free :):):).....Enjoy......Josie
