    Oh they are stunning.

    Are they F1 greens?
    Thirty-five years keeping and breeding discus, and I'm still learning :P

    fin curl-over

    One of those fish has a dorsal fin curl-over. I've seen that a fair bit in some of my fry here also. I've been feeding then to the Cod and I'm wondering what it is. Never had that problem in Townsville with the fry from the same parents. At this stage i'm hypothesising that its the high heavy metal content in the water.

    Wild discus only please. Or bring back the old strains from the 80's.

    that fish is gone now. i've thinned them down from 17 to 10 fish now in 700litres of water, they should grow pretty quick.
