what type of discus is this, heckel, or own aquarium breed and what is the name of this discus thanks.

 

[Mr.Kiet]

That look like a Snakeskin Discuss. I could be wrong though.

Blue Heckel maybe. It looks to be a combination of different strains.

thanks, I'm redoing my tank and setting it up and was going to get a couple of those but each website/LFS has different names.

It doesn't look like a heckel (the middle stress bar is not to big as the others), and doesn't look like a snakeskin too (the stress bars are distant from the others).
It lloks like a Red turquoise to me, a nice one.
what's the price ??

 

[fishyjoe26]

I think it was around 60-80 $usa$

Yes, its a common Red Turquoise. I think I have 13 of them in my 240 gal. from a pair that I gave to my son. There are pictures of some of them in the photo thread.

red turquoise, thanks. is 29.99 a good price to pay for a 3 inch one.

Its not a bad price for healthy ones. I saw some 3" Pigeon Bloods yesterday at a LFS in the next town from here for $50.00. They were all peppered up, and I nearly laughed out loud! I wouldn't have taken all of them for free! So yeah, that's a decent price.
