Just set an 125GA tank to house 12 discus, 6-8 sterba's cory , 20-25 cardinal tetra's. Keeping things simple, no high light, CO2, plants, just a few anubias nana, java fern attached to Manzanita driftwood. Used an sand type of substrate from the LFS that sold me the tank. So far the tank is up and running for an week, all good, using Fluval FX5 and a sponge filter. For now placed one B/N pleco, and seven discus in this from my 55GA planted tank. These are the first group of discus I got over a year ago and have not turned out so good as far as growth. My wife says keep them, but I know from reading on this forum they are stunted. Last week while in Houston, Tx.stopped by an discus dealer and got to see first hand some real quality fish, just amazing...I've been burned enough from buying online and getting something different from what is pictured or advertised. So I'm asking what would you do with these 7 discus after my new 125 gets cycled? Open for any suggestions other than setting up another tank for them.
