WOW nice pictures.

This is the best discus thread ever!

the angles are soooo tiny that they dont seem to be bothering the discus yet, everyone seems to be eating pretty well, I sat and watched them eat to make sure no one was getting left out....i have the camera so we will get pics up tonight when i get home and you can see just how tiny they are, looking forward to tracking their growth on here though...

right now I've had the tank at a stable 84.5 degrees. I also have some baby koi angels in the tank. will they be ok in this high temp water? Me and my wife will post some pics of the babies when she gets home from work.

Angels and discus occur together in the wild, so the temp will be fine. However, angels are much more aggressive at feeding time and small juvie discus will get intimidated by them. For that reason I wouldn't keep juvie discus and angels together.

You want to keep them at a higher temp especially since they are fry/juvies. I keep my adults at 84

Dude where is the pics?

They are so small right now, most of them dont even have any color to them yet. I'm trying to get the water temperature at a stable 82 degrees. Once I do that, I'll take some pics and maybe they'll look a little better.

Was this the tank that was going to be Troph? I am glad you all chose the king of the aquarium

Yeah, we had originally planned on putting Tropheus Musanga's in this tank but the price wasnt right so we missed out this time around. I've been saying for a year now that i really wanted to do a sick Discus tank, so here's my chance (er...OUR chance).

haha...Hey Thai, where are your girls posts???

I don't grant her permission to get on.
