Ya get those Pics Rob?

I'm a bum... It took me until today to get some decent pics of the tank & fish. I had to get a tripod. They're way faster than my corals which are easy to photograph by hand.

Either way, I took a bunch, so here goes a waste of bandwidth!

Full tank:

Blood red and cobalt blue:

Another of the two big guys. The cobalt is about 6" diameter or so

Thank you Very Much I am up cycling and will be a bit b4 I add the discus but Im one step closer. I went to my work and bought 6 Red eyed Tetra's and 6 alb cory's so Im gonna prolly wait about 6 weeks or so and get the discus. Is that ample time ya think or wait longer? I am not runnning peat yet but will add it to my mag 350 pro here soon.

6 weeks is usually long enough for the cycle, just make sure you're water quality is really good is the most important thing. Test NH3, NO2, NO3 to know when the cycle is over.

Just be careful. My first two discus did not do well, as I did not have the water quality that they needed. One of them passed away and the other's growth was stunted. And discus are too expensive to mess around with...

I am getting a deal on two that were part of a cull from a breeder for the first two Discus. 2 for 15 bucks. and they are silver dlooar sized.

Two for $15 is probably the cheapest discus I've ever heard of. Lucky, lucky...
