I love discus, and the ones you got for your mom are beautiful. I wish I could get some, but at this point I'm most likely too much of a beginner to be able to give them the high quality water they need, and besides, I cannot afford them anyway.

I hope that you are able to get him to grow - his color is stunning!

Thanks Dave Im working on it... and hoping that he will grow. Sometimes when they are stunted like that, they just never grow in size. There is also the argument among Discus owners that keeping Discus in a planted and decorated tank with substrate will stunt their size. I do not understand that concept but most of them seem to agree with that statement. they have told me if you want the larger Discus to keep them in bare bottom tanks w/o decorations. Well.. my guys are not going to be prized breeders lol.. and I have no plans on selling them if they do spawn. But will give them away to my friends who want a Discus since they will most likely spawn between different types and not give a true breed. Such as my pigeon blood and the blue turk in the 29g tank. I think they may end up being a pair, so will have to see what happens. If and when it happens I will certainly post the results and hopefully find some homes for them!
