    Bayouboy, how is the pigeon blood doing by himself? pictures?

    It is recommended for social reasons that discus be kept in groups of no less than 6. A single discus will likely be skittish and unhappy. When they're unhappy and stressed they can quickly succumb to disease or parasites.

    Bayouboy, what size tank do you have them in? Are the ones you are getting adults or juvies?
