Its fine but as wayne sees it i would rather have a bio-type.

Also i've heard loaches are more nocturnal so its not good to keep with discus since discus sleep at night. The loaches might keep the discus up at night and cause stress. Idk i read that in TFH.

U've put it all in one pot! Great work!
When some so called Discus Guide books are misleading this is a far more worthy stuff!

Welcome Jabber, happen to have any pics of the tank or fish? We all love to see discus pics

Yes teenie weeni fish, medium fish, etc...are ranks. They rise with a certain amount of posts. Its no status symbol though. Look at my post count and then at fishboy's.....i'm older and have more posts, he is younger with less.....but he is so much smarter than me
