wow, nice shots...my uncle used to keep discus (A LOT of them) so I can really appreciate this photography.
They all look really great, but I happen to be partial to pigeon bloods, snakeskins and snow whites!

love the pics makes me think since i've been debating whether or not to make the financial commitment to discus because I do love the way they look, the tank I would most likely put them in is my planted 150 it's a reef ready but I don't do salt at least not yet, how many discus do you think I could fit in there?

In a 150? Shoot I'd go for 9 or 10 if you also wanted a school of something else.

it's already got a full compliment of fish if I decided to do discus I'd probably rehome everyone except my ditherfish, I'd keep the 30 or so neons, the 9 glass cats and the cories if they can take the temp. and maybe the yoyo and striata loaches

if filtration system is good along with good amount of WC daily,then you can easily keep 15+ mature discus.
you can keep neons with discus,but in that case you'll have to introduce neons before that of discus.also please introduce adult neons in your tank.

My discus never bothered my neons. Actually my discus have never bothered any of my fish lol. If the discus are juvies then I don't think they'll bother them any way you flip it.
