I was just curious as to what other setups do people have other then discus?
I myself have 5 discus tanks and I'm starting to set up a 150 gallon salt water tank.
What do you have?

I have a ten gal. guppy tank, planted, and a 55 South American tetra and chocolate chiclid tank. The chocs spawn every few weeks, but I don't have RO so they never hatch. Giving the chocs to my daughter soon, my discus want a big tank now.

In addition to my discus, I have a pair German Blue Rams (preparing for the 5th or 6th time). I have a pair each of Harlequin Rasbora, Rummy-Nose Tetra and Serpae.

One of my 10 gal tanks has 3 red-eyed tetra, 3 pearl danio and a leopard puffer. These are the fish I used to cycle my new tanks.

Of course I enjoy the discus the most. The Rams are my second favorite because they keep spawning and their behavior is very interesting.

Those are Farlowellas, twig catfish. They're pretty cool fish, look like I just stuck them on the glass, like thermometers.

Tad, sorry, I don't have any Discus anymore. I was trying to keep that a secret. My w/c experiments continue though and the ease of maintaining these tanks is almost embarrassing.

Can Twig catfish live with discus?

Yes they can. They eat algae. I've never seen any sign of aggression from them.
