Discus tank

The fish don't seem to mind. I'd just like to give them a shaded spot.

Doesn't that light have a cloudy day feature?

Not this one as far as I know. That might be the new Finnex planted+ 24/7. I'm looking into that one a smaller tank.

Gotcha. My bad. I have some type of Lilly in my tank. Got some bulbs @ Petco.

Nice! I really like how that looks

 

[Bbush]

Thanks! I think those Lilly pads might work a little better if the tank wasn't so tall. I'm not sure what they are, but you get the idea. I also had some hornwort that floated at the surface. That might do the trick if you had enough.

I attached Java fern to a piece of my driftwood. I am going to slowly add plants that i thoughtfully pick out, instead of just pointing at stuff at Petland like I did last time. I'm still leaning toward jungle Val.

MINIMAL is giving away water sprite in the classifieds. Might fill in the back. I'm getting some to go with my new light, & hopefully it will help hide my equipment / wires.

Yeah, I read his ad yesterday. I need to reposition my heater as well. My spray bar is on back order, once I get that installed I'll hide my equipment better.

Looks a lot better than mine.

I need more discus.

 

[Bbush]

Ha! Don't we all? How many do you have?

Right now I have only 3. My LFS doesn't carry them. The only place near me with discus is Petland and they have a limited selection.

I ordered mine from Hans, but they weren't cheap... ???

Is Hans on this forum?

 

[Bbush]

Internet. Actually prices aren't bad but shipping is high. Ok if you get a bunch I guess. I got 6 for $250 total.

I just ordered 3 more discus today - 2 red pearl and 1 Marlboro red.

I've got a Marlboro red... One of my favs! Just now bluing up. About 3"
