    yes such a fine substrate does have its drawbacks .when cleaning the tank some of the filter sand does get sucked up.i just bought a extra bag and top up when need be.the natural look is more work but the wilds love the fine substrate its awsome to see them blowing the sand when they look for food.i dont mind the extra work as the wilds are happy and that makes me happy.
    discus.is there any other fish.

    Beautiful fish. How about full tank shot. I love wilds.
    Thirty-five years keeping and breeding discus, and I'm still learning :P

    hun they look very nice where did you buy them from.please dont feed your cuipeua tetra bits it will turn them a horrible unnatural orange colour.i feed sera discus granules ,beef heart mix and freeze dried blackworm.

    Hi ! Nev i bought them from Richmond i guess they are from IA , i tough tetra bit are enrich of their red, after research for the wild water , background and light is more important , the white sand and light you have might be the best.
