those are some great looking, healthy discus!

thanks - i am really glad i got them. anyone who is really interested in discus need to join simplydiscus.com
the sponsors on there are where i get all my stock from. top notch, super reputable people.
personally i am one to buy fish from other hobbyists, but in the absence of anyone that i knew in the immediate area i decided to take the plunge and order online without having seen any of these fish. you have to trust the people sometime, and those sponsors are vetted and are great to deal with.
for something like discus it's almost worth spending that extra bit of money and get some quality fish as opposed to taking your chances with your LFS. not that LFS don't carry good stuff, but in my experience i have yet to really see any LFS in the area carry top notch discus.
 
All look great man! :)

What breeder did those come from again?
 
I like the new direction! I really like the ones with thick turquoise pattern and deep red color, like in the first pic, are those 'checkerboard'?

sponsor's name is Kenny - he's on the simply discus forum. absolutely hands down the BEST shipper and seller i have ever dealt with by far. the fish were packed SO well - not a drop of water outside the bags and the heat packs were toasty warm.
kenny gets his fish from some of the top breeders in malaysia and singapore.

yup - checkerboard turqs ;)
that first picture is of my favorite fish. pretty aggressive though, so i need to add more adults into the tank.
 
absolutely beautiful!! kudos to you, i have never been brave enough to attempt a discus tank..:D
