    Default juvenile discus shape

    I have 6 juvi discus about 4" tall and they all have a slight triangular shape their eyes are not too large for their body worried i may have bought a bunch of stunted fish , do they take on the nice round shape as they grow?

    Depending on the change...young fish will often round out as they mature.

    I don't want this to sound wrong. I often get labled as a jerk because I believe in being straight forward. My opinion from seeing the tank is it really does not matter what discus you put in there they are never going to thrive. They are never going to grow right. Many of us here started the same way to realize that it just does not work well.

    Goos luck.
