One of my little guys ( or girl ) just baffles me as to what strain it is! I am posting a picture of him/her see if you guys can help. I have no idea what he/she is but I just couldnt pass up on a deal ( really good deal!) and i was starting my discus tank as it was. Right now i dont care about Show quality discus nor the pretiest out there. All i want is good healthy discus that can stay with me for many years to come. Anyway, here is the crappy pic i took with my phone :D This discus in about 2.5 inches long and very round and although it might be the smallest one of the bunch, it is the Alfa in the tank as he bullies the other ones around a little bit but only when being fed. I got it when it was about Quarter size but it is growing fast! This new orange coloration has started in this week, At first i thought it was going to be just pale looking and didnt matter what kind was going to be, but now! I mean, how can i not be curious! He/she is looking great from what it was!
