I bought two blue diamond discus at the same time 3 weeks ago. At the time, I knew nothing about keeping fish, and it's only since my purchase that I've realised that I have started with the most difficult fish imaginable!
I've read a lot of people say that you should keep 6 discus if you want them to thrive, however I have a 50g tank so don't want to push my luck.
Having observed my discus over the past three weeks, they went from being very timid, to very confident. They follow each other around everywhere and don't seem to hide anymore. There is no sign of any bullying at all.
So my question... If the two discus seem happy together, is it okay to just stick with two discus?
