    I'm not quite the photographer Pat is but here's a few more photo's.. Their colors are off because of the background and black sides. I hope to re-paint the tank sometime in the near future.

    I had a really nasty algae situation in this photo. I'ts been corrected!!

    What a nasty looking eye!! Actually, the eye is fine. It's a combination of his pattern and the camera, lol...

    That's actually a different tank with the Curipera's, but yes I would like for pretty much anything to pair up at this point. All the non-PB's I have would be good crosses. I also have some Red Covers I'd like to mix in there...

    Thanks guys. As I said several times earlier, I really like these discus.

    They are in the very early stages of spawning at this point. One think I have learned is that the turqs are male and female. I may switch out the females and go with Turq x Turq. I find the patterns on them to be very nice!!
