    Default Greethings from Sydney Australia

    Hi all members

    My name is Sasho and i have been quite new in fishkeeping and especially with discus fish.

    As a beginner in fish keeping one year ago i have been tricked to go with discuses even though not knowing nothing about fishkeeping and requirements and do not even mention requirements for a discus needs. Went to a lot of troubles, infections, parasites and anything that can go wrong, it went wrong in my tank.
    I have paid ultimate price for being too naive and lost few fish, but now one year onwards i am happy that i have made that mistake and now enjoy seen them swiming around.

    I have 80g tank with 2 canister filters and one sponge attached to airline.

    I have 8 discuses, 3 are around 6 inches and few others are not too far behind. One stunned by the look of it but still looks good in there

    Once i get to know how to upload files of my computer, will post some pictures. At the moment my browswer only allows me to upload URL files wich i do not have.

    Welcome to SD Sasho, sounds like you have had a rough trip but are doing well for yourself. To be able to keep and treat discus as a beginner is quite a feat!

    Hi Sasho, nice to see you here and welcome to Simply. You have had quite a hard road with your first year of discus keeping. Good for you for sticking it out.

    Thanks Pat, Kris
    I can see it now, once they grown out how rewarding is having them in my tank. Almost sold them on 2 occasions but last minute i have changed my mind and do not regret

    Will do as much as i can get free time.

    2 Moths ago we welcomed baby boy and now i have full hands of work and not as much time for my discuses. But will do my best, and i will need a lot of advice as i have pair.

    My blue torquise and snakeskin paired up and had already 2 sets of eggs so far but unfortunately they ate the eggs. Soon enough there would be another lot of eggs.
