Monster fish and calm fish, no



discus are monster

they are (can be ) really agressive
 
I currently have 6 discus (50/50 adults/juvis) in with my motoros in a 7 foot long tank. The only problem I see is the young discus get intimidated during feeding time. I like to feed the rays something like fish chunks to distract them while I feed the discus. So far, no problems and they've been together for a few months now. Its just trial and error. Good luck

joey020283 that is a beautiful tank, is that yours? great discus although whats up with the stress bars? lol i'm sure its nothing i'm just a worry wart when it comes to discus.

Yup, thats my tank... the lights just came on for feeding, so they have a few bars. They were also pretty skittish in the bare tank because i had it in a high traffic area as well. They have since been moved to a tank on there own, and the ray moved to a bigger tank with another ray, and asian aro.
