Nice fish!

I think he may need some treatment for bacterial problems though, I cant see it too clearly, but I think he has a touch of cloudy eye, and some fin damage/infection. Waterlife myxazin is excellent for these kinds of problems.

Thanks for the advice ken, but that pic was taken right after i put him in the tank and the pic didn't came out too good, however the rednes on his eyes came back today and he's settling in quite good, my other discus also stop harrassing him(I guess the pecking order has already establish)....he seems really active and would came up on the surface for food during feeding time....I'm still nervous about him cause i don't have a quarantine tank and i'm taking the risk of infecting my other discus if this one carried a disease on him.....I took better pics today and will be posting it again soon....

Thanks snowangel.... This guy cost me $45 + tax from Big Al's. This is the first time I bought discus to the LFS cause he seems to be healthy( I spend almost 1/2 hour observing the fish). I bought my other discus from a breeder from Burlington Ont. for a cheaper price($25 for a 2.5-3"). I just don't have time to go there....
