    The tank looks amazing but I have a question: how do you deal with the feedings, discus are not the most active crazy fish when it comes to feeding and some food is sure to get to the bottom and in the plants?

    I have little clean uppers that helps and I feed my Discus all kinds of foods in small amounts the one thing I like about sand is that the food stays on top my discus go down in the plants and fine the food and the clean up crew eats the rest it's a Dirt tank w/sand cap No co2 I got the discus at 2" kept them in a 40 breeder BB tank till thay were 4" and then put them in the tank and do 75% w/c weekly the plants & Discus are happy & heathy.

    I always admire a planted tank with discus. I couldn't possibly do it (I've tried years ago), but I think your tank looks great. Thanks for sharing. Rufus
