Hello all, new member here. I am just about ready to get back into the hobby of discus. I have been away for close to 8 years and recently got the urge to start up again. Since then i have been preparing a 75g tank, along with a means to age and change water somewhat efficiently. Tank has a sand bottom and some manzanita branches w/ some greens attached to them. Fairly simple, with nothing fixed to the bottom sand. Ill try to get some pictures posted. Next step is 6 adults from Kenny!!! Excited to get a tank running again.

Yes, welcome back! That tank will look great with adult Discus in it. What strains are you considering?

Those are some of my favorite strains. Oh who am I kidding? I love them all but I been really wanting to try some wild strains. Your tank is great! Can’t wait to see them. I am a Kenny fan myself. :)

I like the RSG's, but the Albino RSG's are even more beautiful, imo.
And the Leopard SnakeSkins - WOW, to me anyway.

Thanks, Daniel. They're quite nice and the price is reasonable.
