Welcome to the forum, Laurence.
Your tank looks great, as do your discus.
Can't see what your substrate is - must be a thin layer.

Thks Paul!
Substrate is from tropica, helps keep pH low, my tap comes out ar 7.6 and tank pH os around 6.7.

Allways thought that I had a Problem with some of my discus, with your Disease article found that they had flukes, treating them now and looking espetacular :)

Would just like to thank the forum for the info.

Congrats

Im looking fwd 2,i took all the water out and cleaned the background and glass with bleach and now the tank is runing with the echinodorus in a plastic box with substrate in and the big driftwood. Going to move soon and getting the tank ready for transport.

Here is a foto of one of my nhamunda after 2 days of treatment
