    Your tank always reminds me of my old 55g grow out. Love that Flachen? When will these transfer over to a larger tank? They are starting to outgrow their digs

    How big is your tank again? When I did my vacation, I had a 125 gal and maybe 10 discus. With another vacation coming, I reduced all my hardware to 75 gals (8 and 10 discus). I have my IP cams ready so I can monitor when I have free wifi.

    I have 9 in a 55gal. and I would love to set up some IP cams but I would probably watch them all day at work.

    Your discus are so gorgeous! Big difference after you cleaned it. What type of fluorescent lighting are you using ? Can you post a pic of it ? I'm looking to add one to my tank.

    So here's what I've got.
    It's a Coralife fixture and lights. I can't find a part # but I remember it being cheep, probably this fixture
    http://www.thatpetplace.com/48in-aqu...&category=2789

    The lights are Coralife Colormax. (I thing this might fall under the KISS method)
