Hi recently bought this as Rafflesia , 3 -3 1/2 inches . Settled in really well eating FDBW from hand within 24 hrs . I love the broken pattern and have been on the lookout for one for a while now .

Very nice. Don't get too attached to the broken pattern though. It is very common for pigeons to fill in from the head back to the tail. I would expect the back to be filled in before too long.

Great looking discus hollis . I love the half way pattern and i would love it to see it grow up this way .

Q. for more experienced members .
Is there any distinguishing feature in Rafflesia discus that separate him from a simple checkerboard PB or even a Red map discus ?
Because they all look pretty much the same to me?

That's a great question Filip. Thinking I should ask Kenny as he usually stocks them. All of his I have seen, including mine, have very small markings opposed to the larger patterns of checkerboard
