Nice looking tank and fish. Really like those angels.
Is it just me or is the discus way in the back super skinny?

It's not just you. This Stendker discus doesn't eat well. Too intimidated. Eats well when alone. Maybe quarantine. Thanks for the reminder.
those angels are stunning OP. the discus are nice too but those angels are the show of this tank IMO. love the scape, its simple but effective. I especially like the bunches of java fern on the wood, that really set the wood off.

Thanks! I see you got some amazing wild discus in your avatar.
It's the plants that will make this tank pop. Tank needs more color. There are many large plants planted in this tank. A couple sword plants, some tall crypts, Madagascar lace plant, Tiger lotus, etc. All plants bought as babies and just adapting to water now as they were all grown emersed (Tropica).
I love the scape simple but elegant. Angels are definitely stunning ! Can you help me find the java fern you used ? I believe its called narrow leaf java fern where can I buy it from ?
Beautiful setup. Very pretty.
Tank difficult to photograph due to LED. The spot-light nature of them create shadows at many angles. One thing different than T5HO. Even in person, the fish are in shadows. The only disadvantage of LEDs so far.
Also see Discus with split fins. Water quality not perfect lately since tank is not very established and had to transfer all the fish from 75g to this 180g within the matter of days.
Otherwise all good.
you've got a beautiful tank. You also have a really heavy bioload, how much water do you change daily? The fish on bottom right in first pic, he the runt?

All fish doing better now - knock on wood. Water is clearing up. 2 x 50% WC weekly. The fish devour frozen bloodworms. Went through one of those large flat packs in 3 weeks. Looking for better quality foods. Fins on Altums recovering.
Not much change from plants - I try to keep light low, pressurized co2 is low too. Designed aquascape for low maintenance and longevity. Fingers crossed.

Hmmm I wonder what would happen if I put diffuser on LED. Difficult to photograph since the light is so direct. Will try wax paper as a diffuser or something.
looking good OP.
