    Thanks Vinni! Yes I’m happy with it. It’s got some scratches but I bought a Removal kit so hopefully that works. But when full the scratches are barely noticeable. And the new guys are doing good! All eating fdbw now so all is good . They’ve started swimming the whole tank and not all schooled up so they are getting comfortable. Been changing 30% daily but there is an ammonia showing. It’s at .25. Guess my old media wasn't enough.1A955771-E0F5-46F6-83D8-F48268CBA651.jpg

    That looks like a pretty good filter you have there.

    That’s off eBay. It’s an odyssea 250. Cost about $15 delivered. This one moves 250gph. They also sell a 350 for about $17. That one is 3yrs old. So they last .

    It is very difficult to say Tom as most names are simply trade names given by the breeder. I don't really see anything that would distinctly identify them as white leopards. Hans site has no images to compare them too, and the other Google pics of Stendker white leopards really look nothing like them I'm sorry to say...white base with red dots, no pattern as on the one on the right in your pic at least
    Yours are clearly in PB family of discus and not dissimilar to many of the PB strains that have a variety of different names, but since they're Stendker, they do look more like Stendker Red Pigeons than anything else they offer.
    Maybe send some pics back to Hans and see if he can confirm. I have never purchased from him but going by what others have said here on SD I'm sure he will assist you.
