Beautiful Discus Sailor, I just love mine, they have settled in their new 75 gallon just wonderfully and getting along just fine, I hope you get as much enjoyment out of yours as I am getting out of mine, good luck :)

[Lady Hobbs]

OK.......gotta know. How many in a 55 gallon? 3? 4 "maybe"

[sailor]

I think 4 in a well planted 55 gal would be fine LH

[sailor]

Once I know these 2 are doing good I will order 2 more Tangerines to go in with them.

[Lady Hobbs]

New plan now in action.

[angelcakes]

[Ark6ie]

excellent pics.... i want some even more now!!!!:18:

[sailor]

These 2 are all over the tank with still no problems. They are like siameese twins tho, where 1 goes the other is right beside it. They both ate some thawer out frozen blood worms but ignored the NLS pellets. I am sure they will figure out that it is food sooner or later. The previous owner fed them flakes.

[jbeining75]

The flakes are the problem. They don't notice the pellets as a food source yet.. They will eventually get hungry enough and grab the pellets.

Those are awesome, I want some so bad! What other fish are you putting in with them? If any? Are they that hard to take care of?

They are in my 55 gal GBR tank. They require a bit more care than most but not too bad. They are more delicate when in comes to water quality but that shouldn't be a problem as I do 2 50% water changes a week in the tank they are in. The ph is a stable 6.8 so they should do well.I lucked out as they are super healthy and were quanrentined for 2 weeks before I got them. They are in with 3 honey gouramis, 5 GBR's, 10 neons and some bottom feeders. I am feeding them nls pellets as the staple and will give frozen blood worms a couple times a week for a treat.

[Algenco]

you know, I liked you a lot more before you got all those neat fish that I can't have

[dustinpedley]

those are really nice.....
