Very nice forest you have there. Is the water getting stained with tannins, or is that the natural color of the pics?

very nice layout. although in my opinion you should stick to wild discus in a layout like that you should avoid the blue ones and the other colors of discus.

if i were you i would have bought paracheidon axelrodi (aka cardinals) instead of paracheidon innesi.

but the layout/aquascaping is marvelous, it really look like a mongrove forest.

nice job congrat

What size tank?

Thats a 30high, the biggest Discus is 2in, I figured I could grow them out quicker in the 30 with frequent water changes being eaisier than thier eventual 65...
