Anyone ever seen these before?

What is a dark knight?

[danotaylor]

Mando I haven't heard of Dark Knight, but looking at the fish in the pics I wonder if it is a version of the dark angel by Stendker...there appears to be peppering above the central line not dissimilar to the Mercury/dark angel strain...
Filipe I have not seen that cross but they have good shape and look nice. They have been raised we'll

Sorry I meant blue knight. I will be getting these fish tomorrow

Hello fellow Canadian. Where did you order your discus from? For me it is almost impossible to find anyone who sells quality discus and is located in Canada.

My discus came home today. I'm super happy with these fish. They are still a little stressed with the move but they started eating an hour after they arrived.





The previous owner told me they just over a year old. With fish this size and this old is feeding 4x a day and daily 50% WC's go a long way to get them even bigger?

7 in total in a standard 75 gallon tank

Hey, I’m in Manitoba.

I bought discus from Canadian Aqua Farm in BC. He's on the sponser list on this forum.

I would say yes to your qn...high quality high protein food and lots of clean water and they should keep growing for another year or so. Not at the same rate as the 1st yr, but they'll get bigger for sure with the right care.
