How big is your "regular aquarium"? The basic rule is 10 gallons per adult fish. A palm sized discus can become dinner plate sized at full growth.

As for tank mates? Start with the discus in a bare bottom tank until you do lots of reading and find out what YOU think is best.

Good luck.

Hi,

here is a fish with large eye.

Hi Pink:
You can keep 6 palm sized discus in a 55 gallon tank with daily water changes of 25%. I don't keep anything with discus but discus.
