Default Discus Updates

Can't remember if i posted these here yet or not. Just wanted to share some newer pictures of my discus. They've grown very nicely since i got them in July, i guess its been almost a month so far. Putting on color and all. Blue Diamond


Hopeful pair, still forming.

Cobalt


Marlboro

This is either a Brilliant Turq or a Flachen (cobalt in my mind). I can't tell yet. I wish i could remember if i got 1 of each or 2 BTs....oh well this fish is going to be a really nice one when he gets older from what i can tell. Very outgoing fish, always hungry one of the first to the meal and showing lots of color. He is growing better then most of the other smaller ones. With flash.
Without flash


Just a couple of headshots.

I got eggs today from my hopeful BD x Cobalt pair. The BD is the female. The Cobalt ate the eggs though.
Here is the Cobalt eating them.

Very nice fish Matt. I like that Turq.
