Hi! I don't post often but I thought I'd share some pictures of my tank. I've had these little guys for a few months now and they're doing great! Thanks!

Thanks! The tank is 125 gallons. I have 11 discus in there. Daily 30% WC's and they're doing great. :) They've all grown in the last couple of months and eat like pigs! I'm very grateful to the forum because I've learned so much and my fish are thriving.

Hi Angelqh,

Nice set up and the plants are beautiful.

Thanks. :) It is harder to keep clean than a bare bottom... that's for sure. I vacuum the gravel a bit everyday with the WC's. I have a school of c. sterbai in quarantine that will go in the tank in a few weeks to hopefully eat some of the food off the bottom.

The plants do suffer a little with all of WC's and vacuuming. The ones I have in there are pretty hardy, thankfully. I don't have CO2 running in there. Under the rocks I have a layer of substrate, and I use Flourish every other day or so. I have a Filstar XP4 filter, and 2 300 watt heaters.

thanks for letting me share! I've had fish for years but I'm fairly new to discus. It's not discus related, but I'm very excited because I just got another 125 gallon tank for a steal on craigslist. My giant Parrot cichlid will be going in there for now...
