I'd don't, lol ... though I'd LOVE TO have the time for a huge planted discus tank! I don't think I would have the time to perform 50% water changes in a huge tank twice a week - for this is what Discus need: a huge tank, and large and frequent water changes.
Not I, but I am thinking about it. I have a 55 gallon tank in my front room that is sitting empty at the moment. I am slowly collecting the substrate, decor, and most importantly the lighting I will need to get it started. Reading up on discus has been part of the fun of trying to plan what ill go in the tank. I want bigger, peaceful fish that are colorful- but at the same time I want to be absolutely sure I am up for the long term care that they will need before purchasing them.
One thing I am certain of- they are amazing fish!!
I'm loving the red one in your pic nice colour,I have a pair of ghost reds, 4 cobolt blues,2 spotted leopards,1 blue diamond,2 blue turks,2 red turks,1 white (which is one of my sick ones),1 pigeon blood, 1 golden sunrise and a small one which i still dont know what it is.I would love a red rose and a yellow.The really deep reds get me everytime.
