    Week 23

    23 weeks with these guys and everything is still going very well.
    Their health and routine has been very consistent, feed beefheart/shrimp, flake and pellets with 80% daily water changes.
    It seems too simple of a recipe to raise discus but it really is when they are healthy from the start.
    Figured I would only add 1 tank shot this week just to show their size in their 4 foot 80 gallon tank.
    Been a little busy and have final inspection today on a new deck, stairs and garage, finished just in time before the rains.

          Hey Bill,

          What can I say that hasn't already been said? Beautiful fish.

          Keep up the good work.

            Bill, the discus look great as always. Good luck with your inspections.

              Thank you Chris
              Well, looks like I have to install a handicap rail to the stairways so it's back to work for another couple days.

                  Not no more buddy, more than half the contest to go and I see your discus coming on strong. I don't believe there is any substitute for your own mix.
                  Anyway it's all just a lot of fun. I'm anxious to see if these guys pair off and spawn before it's all over. I don't remember them doing that last year, guess I should go back and check.
                  Thanks Kirk,
                  Bill
