    Default Stocking 75

    Looking at getting some new discus, i was thinking of stocking 6 - 8 four inch discus in a 75 Gal. Someone i was talking to suggest that i need to stock 10 - 12 four inch discus in my 75 due to pecking order and stressing them out....... Thoughts?

    I like the 6-8 too. That's seems enough to establish pecking order in my tanks, and I think they'll do well with the space as they grow.

    7-8 would be great IMO . Plus an understocked tank will give you less headaches with maintenance than the opposite.
