LOL love it. I literally laughed so hard when I read this I don't know why.

Really? How big is it? Mine came out pretty aggressive... its close to 2 inches and it challenged my baby flowerhorn for king of the tank and won!I was surprised haha it now lives in the flowerhorns old cave and since then the bottom or the belly and tail have gotten dark,is that normal for syspiliums?

My discus. Ranging from 3"-6"

 

[josh7]

That blue discus is gorgeous! Are they hard to care for I have heard they are pretty sensitive.

Actually they are not. I do a 35-40% water change once a week. I was told 20% every two three days. The hardest thing is getting them to eat. They didn't like my new life spectrum at first. But now if I drop any meaty frozen cube in there (brineshrimp, beefheart, bloodworms, etc) they will turn into piranhas. Also they are very skittish. They come up to the glass, but when I put my finger up, they dart away. They are also scared of the chopsticks that hold the frozen cubes. Here are some more pics. Also have a green terror.

Mine is about 5". It will fight any fish but i mean its a sissy when i go to the tank. Out of all the fish i have right now my grammode is the least scared of me.
