50 Gallon Tank Stocklist

Any specific salt? Or can I use the salt I use for my marine fish tank?..and yes water change is cure for everything!

API aquarium salt, very much different than marine salt

Lol thanks for clarifying that....would of been a good way to kill $200 worth of fish.

Here is the stock list:

1x Diamond Blue Discus http://macsdiscus.com/Diamond-Blue-Discus.html
1x Bold Red Universe Discus http://macsdiscus.com/Bold-Red-Universe-Discus.html
1x Red Melon Discus http://macsdiscus.com/Red-Melon-Discus.html
1x Lined Master Yellow Discus http://macsdiscus.com/Line-Master-Yellow-Discus.html
1x Red Leopard Discus http://macsdiscus.com/Red-Leopard-Disucs.html

I think I have to much red...trying to diverse the colors...but also trying to make them stand out since I have a blue background.

Tankmates:

6x Sterbai Cory Cats
1x Sunshine Pleco
3x Angelicus Loaches

I'm worried about the temp of my water which will most likely be at 84 degrees..can the tank mates handle it? Also if you guys have better suggestions of eighter species of discus or tankmates Id appreciated..here is a site of a bunch of discus from the store I'll probably be ordering from:

Last but not least, after the stocklist seems to be all set with the desired fish and temperature..I will show it to the boss (Mom lol....) then we'll take of a staple diet for these guys

Thanks A Million

Nice thanks for the tip...now I gotta check out the sunshine pleco's temp and the loaches.

Also I dont know if liveaquaria info is wrong...but it say's says sterbais temp is at a max of 77 degrees...problem?

The loaches it says up to 86 degrees and the pleco at 79 degrees. I guess I'll post the cory cat temp in the catfish section along with the loaches and the pleco in thier section.
