I think if I lived near to Kenny's Discus or Wattley's Discus I'd be able to hand-pick my fish, but through all my efforts trying to work with suppliers overseas from where I live, it hasn't happened.
I'm feeling pretty good right now with my six best 6" Discus and six 2.5" Angelfish (these are growing so fast), and my GBR's. Still feel limited with what else I can do with the tank while I still have Discus in there, but for now I'm good.
I wish you luck with getting your setup where you want it to be.
