My wife is purchasing discus from Discus Hans for my birthday! She is the best!
I will be getting 2" - 2.5" 24 in total.
They will be housed in a 55 gallon to start and upgrade into one of my larger tanks. The plan is to feed 3-5x a day of my homemade beef heart mix, tetra tropical granules, brine shrimp flakes, and whenever forrest is able to ship some of his Aquabites. For water changes I was going to try a drip and vac hybrid, so always running a drip and then 2x a day vacuum out the poo with a quick wipe down. I will have 2x sponge filters along with 2x 300watt pro-heat heaters from jehmco. I know 2 300 watt heaters is overkill, but I have had other heaters that just stopped working so I like having backups, I know I am crazy!
The Alenquer had to be special order since Hans no longer keeps them in stock. So I will be receiving them possibly next week or some time after depending on when he receives his shipment from Stendker.
I will post pics of the setup later, been doing some work in the fishroom and moving things around.
