    Rick,

    Are the bottom and sides of this tank painted, or is that a substate?

    I have to admit, these are some of the slowest growing, most fragile fish I have worked with to date. Going to get a second batch going soon after NADA and change a few things to see if I can get better growth.

    Here are a few of the goldens SS this pair threw:





    and the snow leopard babies:

    I found the F1 from my SW x Leopard are some of the fastest growing and hardiest discus I have had they 8 months about and some are getting to the 5" back march the largest was 4". They have been shifted 1300 km since then and have settled in well.
    Thanks Timmy

    Nice looking juvies Rick. What was the ratio of Snow Leopards vs Golden?
