Hey Eric if you crop the pics a little they will be right side up.

They look great Eric, try a slight crop next time before uploading so they appear right side up. I will try and fix your images a bit later.

Your discus are talking to you....are you listening
Thank you. Sorry this is what I get for not previewing the post. Seems like i never have the problem if I keep my cell phone horizontal. Any help with the current pics is appreciated Pat. Thanks,
Eric
9 weeks - AKA 3 weeks until first official check-in!
Holding the course. I've been trying to do as many WC's as possible. Averaging 1-2 during the day and then the 90-100% every evening. I think it's helping to even out their growth. The runt remains comically tiny but still eating (far left of 3rd photo, at 30sec on the video).
Their colors are really starting to show nicely too. The turqs seem to have a lot of variation with a lot of red in the largest one and mainly blue in the others.

When I look back at last weeks video - I think Im making some progress with all these WCs!
Just some general questions:
1. Any reason why you have one runt in the bunch? Obviously he is not sick.
2. From observation, having the runt does not seem to affect the growth of the others?
3. Do you think there was something early on that affected that one fish only?
4. What are your plans for the runt? From what I have seen, most cull the runt.
Enjoying all the forum postings on this. Many great observations.
Thanks Eric. Very interesting observations. I found it educational and helpful.
Great ! looking stock my friend All the fish are having great shapes.
They look great Eric and getting big
