Dude...holey ASSASSIN EGGS....are all those white spec eggs? Look like it in the pics! Oh ya...nice tank BTW...I can only hope to have one that size in the years to come that is actually "INSIDE" the house.
Nice pics, Brian. The new guy looks a mite thin. Did you quarantine him?

What are the facts? Again and again and again--what are the facts? Shun wishful thinking, ignore devine revelation, forget what "the stars foretell", avoid opinion, care not what the neighbors think, never mind the unguessable "verdict of history"--what are the facts, and to how many decimal places? You pilot always into an unknown future; facts are your only clue.
No Nerite eggs will only hatch in brackish. Mark I did QT him for a 2-3 weeks. He was a little under fed when i got him (charity case) but he eats well and has nice solid poo.
I may need to increase my feeding. I have had 6 for so long that I may not have increased it sufficiently to handle the now 11 discus.
Good point. As stocking changes in my tank, I try to tailor the amount fed. It sometimes takes a few days to figure out how much they'll consume at each feeding. Well-fed discus should have a nice round forehead, which is where fat is stored. Pinched foreheads can indicate not enough food, not enough nutrient balance in their food and/or intestinal parisites. NLS discus pellets have a good protein/lipid/fiber ratio. As you know I'm a proponent of feeding multiple kinds of foods to discus.

"I sent a message to the fish:I told them this is what i wish. the little fishes of the sea,they sent a message back to me.The little fishes' answer was,'we cannot do it,SIR,because-"I sent to them again to say,'It will be better to obey.
Did a complete overhaul on my tank this weekend. Got tired of the way it looked with the soil spreading everywhere. I also changed out the discus and going for domestic discus so they can handle the increase in traffic with the new baby and all.
