    ...and here they are again....just arrived at the second last stop on their whirlwind Aussie tour.....

    I have to say, you have got to see these guys in the fins to appreciate how awesome they are..the photos can't capture their 3D chunkiness...or the amazing colour variations...I have to post in the disease section re one of them unfortunately....(headstanding)

    I am very grateful to Darren & Rod for all the hard work they put into these puppies, and the generosity to the forum they have both shown...3 cheers x 2 for Darren & Rod.... Hopefully, they will fry, and we can send a few parcels north of the border to both of you.......

    ....And, also, Thank You to Al, Ryan and all the Simply Admin for the work they put into arranging these events...

    Thanks Again you guys

    Hey Rox, they do look stunning.

    So one is still head standing? Hard to tell from the pics. Hopefully, it's just stress of the move.
    Cheers

    ...or self obsessed.......I know they have always been in BB so I don't think it's what I like to call LFSDFOBTBB Syndrome..."local fish shop discus freaked out by the bare bottom" Syndrome...

    As you requested Roxanne here is a couple of photos of the Challenge discus.
    Note you can still make out the last forked bar.

    I'm looking forward to following the second discus challenge.

    They look really great Joe...I can see how they are all alike now that I have their siblings in my tank....I just love how their bars come out and they look really wild with the intense brown....then almost transform into a different looking fish altogether, like a turk or whatever...thanks so much for updating
