congrats, nice tank.
May I give you one suggestion: put some pool filter sand in the bottom to cover that colored gravel.
BTW, beautifull discus

It's personal preference...but I do know Discus need a lot of open water to swim...so try not to let the plants take over their tank...even though the wild jungle look is awesome, the Discus may feel a bit cramped. Your tank looks great.

Love your wilds - I'm not willing to go through that much trouble to plant out a discus tank but I certainly like yours!
