Adrienne Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 I have two new discus to add to the existing 4 in the tank. Heres some pics (bored nothing to do). Collected them Monday, the blue snakeskin is female, she spawned with the pigeon but he wasn't the dominant male in the tank. The white diamond chased him away and after 24 hours someone ate the eggs First two pics are my new discus. And Dixon - the hatchet pic is for you.

ryanjury Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 They look awesome congrats Did they come from the guru too? No point in putting fish like these in tiny tanks they are majestic and need a big tank to be happy in and cruise around in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrienne Posted January 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 its taken ages - all the steps are in the freshwater section under my 'new tank' posts. Still messing around with it. Have to get more cardinals or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discusguru Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 Wow! the tank look magnificent. Like the setout in the tank. Not too crowded with plants and heaps of space for the discus to swim around. Another 50 Cardinals would be awsome. Looks like the new discus have settled in well. ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixon1990 Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 And Dixon - the hatchet pic is for you. Thanks! The tank is looking realy good! (i agree on the more Cardinals ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke* Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 HOLY MOLY! that is FANTASTIC! that's the best planted nz discus tank i've seen so far very well done mate. it's probably the most challenging to pull off too....because the size of discus and their bright colours can sometimes not blend in with the rest of the aquascape. but you hit the nail on the head......tree root type driftwood and big leafy ferns. what is that tall one with the runners? and wow those discus are brilliant that red/orange pigeon....full kudos to discusguru! yeah i've always loved the blue snakeskins ay...something about them. ps in your 2nd to last pic i note you've got a confused neon tetra (top, middle) wondering why he can't get jiggy with his larger cardinal cousins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
