Growth of a Discus

[discus4me]

hey how'd you get the fish to form a circle with one in the middle? Are you teaching them tricks too? Man thats great! ;D

Ahh, that's nothin' I once taught a tank of 100 fry to spell out D_I_S_C_U_S ;D

Well, besides the fish being amazing, the tank is spotless.. amazing! I suppose Discus are cleaner then my betta, but my spawning tanks are a mess... even after I do my daily maintainence!

No kidding Owen! Spotless and very clean! Never mind the tricks, you can teach them to clean up after themselves! Cool!

Here they are on 11/06/02. They're in a 55g tank now with a tank bottom & one turquoise side. Slightly more peppering then in the all-blue tank but not much. I notice that some of these fish are fairly white-based while the others are more yellow-based. The growth is been pretty good so far. Fairly uniform within the group of 38 fish that I have from this breeder.

Really Nice. and man have they grown a lot. what are u feeding them and how many waterchanges and what size tank. again really nice. they are getting a nice red on them too.

Currently they are in a 55g tank that is centrally filtered along with 2 other 55g tanks. They get a daily 50% water change. They are fed 3x a day, beefheart, bloodworms & Mysis Shrimp.

How old are they now? Some of them have very nice shape!!! Wanna ship some my way? lol

I've had them since September 9. They were about 1.5-2" then. Don't know how old they are. I've got 38 of these guys and will be selling some by the end of November but I can't ship to the U.S.
