    My name is Billy. I live in Chesterfield, Va and keep a 125 gallon with 11 discus and too many plecos. I have been working with Discus this time around for about 8 years now.

    Welcome to the forum, Billy. Sounds like you've got a lot of experience with discus.

    Greg from Warrenton. 16 gallon in my sons room a 40b and a 55 hiding in the closet in the basement waiting for the 240 to arrive on the 18th. I have a lot of construction to do. Need to build the stand and canopy for the 240. I need to build to tank racks in the fish room and have some plumbing that needs to be done. I hope to by cycling tanks in the next 3-4 weeks and hope to have fish in my grow out within the next 2-3 months.

    Thanks Don - I am looking forward to moving from the planning stage to the build stage. I have my moments where I question my sanity but they pass quickly when I picture the finished product.

    I only wish I was ready back when you had fry! How did that batch do? If I recall you kept some?

    Welcome, Varma, to Simply. When you're ready to buy new fish, you might consider a drive up to Baltimore to visit Hans, it's worth a visit. Probably a three hour drive for you, or more, depending on traffic.

    Hey Chris, There is the Potomac Valley Aquarium Society in our area. They have monthly meeting and the guest speaker in June is Discus Hans. Several members keep discus.
    I'm a former discus keeper thinking about setting-up a 90-100gal this spring so LMK when your fry are ready :-)
    I'm kicking myself for not jumping on Don's Stendker's Tefe fry he was selling a little while back.
    So Chris, what strains do you have?

    Hi, Chris,

    I discussed the possibility of organizing a group with Ed Most a while back, but with one thing and another, it sort of got lost. Ed came up with a good name, tho, MADA, for Mid Atlantic Discus Association. At one point I sent out a feeler here on Simply, and there was a good amount of interest, but due to lack of initiative (mine LOL), it sort of floated off into the ether . . .

    Hi, Larry,
    I didn't know Hans was scheduled for PVA, that's great news. I've got a pair of Red Turqs going now if you're interested, no Tefes tho. Maybe in a few months.
