She is turning out to be a pigeon blood IMO.She was sold as a solid yellow. ( yehh right...) lol Either that or her coloring is changing from all the brine shrimp she eats!

I also just added updated photos as they are getting bigger and changing patterns all the time. Lucy Lemon is not so yellow anymore, but looks like it may be a pigeon blood mix.

Thanks so much! Glad you like my pictures.

I've been going thru all my pix to contribute on this site. I kinda missed all the different species I have kept over the years.

Well it's people with you and Allie, who've kept lots of fish over the years, and who love photography, who have made our galleries what they are. I always keep an eye out for yours and Allies's pictures because I know they'll be a treat for the ole eyes! Thanks for all the posting.

New to the forum. Hello everyone. Been keeping discus fish on and off for over 20 years. They are clearly my favorite. As soon as I get going with this forum and figure things out, I will post some of my discus pics.

2 new photos of two of my Discus. I have added a black cloth background to the tank. They show up pretty well now.

updated photos of the Discus

Picture one is Ricky Blue, ( blue diamond) I think he is eating and getting bigger.

Second photo is of Lucy Lemon. She was a Solid Yellow when I bought her, but alas has turned into a Pigeon Blood. Must have been interbreeding between strains going on.

Third photo is of the blue turk ( i believe) not sure what kind it is, since it doesnt have much color on the body other than a greenish brown with the black stripes. And turquoise stripes on its fins.

fourth photo is of lil Casper, who finally is growing some. And I have NO clue what type he is.. lol...

LOL Kevin...
It sure looks that way! I remember casper when I first got him, Nicole who is a forum member ( wonder what she is up to these days?) thought he may grow to be a blue diamond. We still dont know what hes going to be. As you can see from the photo, he is body really doesnt have any coloring if that is possible and his fins seem greyish blue. Only time will tell lol...
