    Cermet, how big is the discus in the fourth picture on the right. He looks nice and round but smaller?

    Believe it or not, he is as big as the yellow one next to him/her. Because of the camera, she/he was lowering his/her fins. The other yellow one, not in the picture, is slightly bigger than either. All three are just under 7 inches. I have two blues as big as these and one blue over seven (a female, part of a mated pair.) I have a 'runt' in the tank who is somewhat over five inches - who you can see on the far left (third to the left), trying to hid from the camera but ready for any food that might fall his/her way ... .

    Great looking fish

    I've always been temped to start a discus tank
    If you take your time to do the research FIRST, you can successfully set-up and keep ANY type of aquarium with ease.

    Thankyou for sharing Cermet, amazing how deceptive pictures can be sometimes. I thought he might have been the runt. Sorry for doubting. I'll be using those pics to persuade my wife that I need a discus tank.

    wow! awesome, makes me want to jump into the Discus sooner than I plan. IMO, the best looking fish that are not in saltwater...
    Life is tough, it's even tougher if your stupid.

    If your not angry, your not paying attention...
