5 Discus vs. 6 Discus?

[scarhbar]

Well, I have a 75 gallon tank, and I wanted to originally do 6 Discus. It was a graduation gift to me from my parents. However, they are looking at only doing 5 at the moment, because of some odd reason (maybe price haha :confused: )

My question is, will I really notice a difference between 5 and 6 Discus. I've kept many schooling fish, and noticed that with odd numbers, the agression was a little better, but not so sure with Discus!

Either way, I know more is better :P However, 5 is my limit

You really should get 6. I started with less than 6 and then when I bought another they were a lot healthier and ate more.

Imo 75 gallons can hold a lot of discus.....depends on discus size......5 to 6 adult discus or 15-20 discus 3 ins(they feel more secure in a group) they grow better too.
