Hi guys!
New to the hobby but long time lurker here. I have 4 discus in a 60 gallon tank. I'd like to get two more: one dark blue and one orange.
Orange
I don't know if there's such a thing as an orange discus. But maybe something along the lines of a rich creamy yellow that may look orange like this one (http://s7.photobucket.com/user/CristaMeganMommy/media/Fish%20stuff/DSC02144.jpg.html)?
I already have a dark red and light yellow, so it is important to me that I get something that looks different from those two.
Dark Blue
I don't like the popular blue diamond discus. That shade of blue is too light for my taste. Where can I get darker blue (almost purple) discus like the ones pictured here (https://www.aco-aquariums.com.au/blog/2012/06/blue-red-turquoise-discus/cccp1070050/)?
Or maybe the one on the far right in this picture (https://i.ytimg.com/vi/S0odRGaatrc/maxresdefault.jpg).
I live on the West Coast, so preferably if I can get it from Kenny's (who is also a site sponsor) that would be ideal. But if not, I'm open to suggestions to any reasonable US online sites.
Or even if you don't know where I can get these discus, if you can just tell me the name of these strains that would be very helpful!
Thanks in advance for your help!
