        In short.....Very well said, and accurate to the T.

          Wow discus seem to be taking a bashing here. LOL I have quite a few discus thay seem to be king in my book. Everyone here seems to be into trophs. Although my wife and I were able to see NEWBS trophs and wow thay are quite nice. I think its a toss up IMO.

                  Discus to me are like my Frontosa, slow and tranquil, very peaceful fish, I have them on one side of the room and my Troph tank on the other. Its like heavy metal music on one and old school rock on the other. I love them both, its like a lays chip you cant just eat one.

                        i have both and have thought about selling the trophs more than once but selling the discus has never crossed my mind they are breeding in both tanks but i am more excited to see the discus fry than the troph fry i like the greenery in the discus tank which i cant put in the troph tank and the peacefullness of the discus but it is awesome to watch the trophs eat but im gonna have to say the discus are my favorite

                          Why even have a debate over this.
                          Discus are the kings & they always will be end of story.

                            Discus. So much better looking than Trophs!

                              Trophs.

                              Because people will beat me up if I say otherwise...

                              Scarecrow: I don't know... But some people without brains do an awful lot of talking... don't they?
                              Dorothy: Yes, I guess you're right.
