Hi,'
The discus in question looks alot like my blue diamond, do I really have a ghost? What is the difference?

I also have a red melon who looks nothing like red melons I see posted on this forum.

Gets real confusing, especially for a newbie...

Hi Karen..

Maybe u could post some pics to clarify... ;D

[dalelad]

there are many names given to red fishes. red melons, golden melons, super red melons, oriental reds, mandarin reds, scarlet reds, marlboro, pigeon blood.. but all are of pigeon ancestry and i'd plainly refer to them as red fishes.
