New Discus

[garyspence84]

Have found out about a good site to check out.

So checked it out, some great choices and pretty reasonable prices. So I have ordered 4 small discus, and I'm meeting up with the guy tomorrow night. Looking forward to it.

Will post with some pictures once I have them.

Fingers crossed

Well, picked up my new discus this evening, and by goodness they are awesome! Went through £15 of petrol trying to find the place but well worth it!

Will post some pictures of them tomorrow night.

As promised.... some pics.

Please excuse the picture quality... my camera is a bit rubbish

Here's blue diamonds with chequerboard pigeon

Blue diamond

Chequerboard pigeon

Saddly, I dont think the pigeon will make it. It was pretty shaken up when I put it into the tank. It got picked on a bit by the Boss of the tank and has been behaving weird since.
This morning when I was leaving for work, it really did not look good at all. Not expecting it to be alive when I get home

But all 3 of the diamond look real nice and healthy and have saw them all eating and swimming about no bother. 1 is slightly paler than the other 2 but still looks in good shape.

Edit: sorry its taken ages to post pics, been working nights. I'm actually in work now doing this, dont tell the boss

As expected, pigeon didn't make it. I kind of knew from the min I put it in my tank it probably wouldn't make it, so its no real surprise. Shame though.

But for some odd reason, my orange discus has also died!?!?

I just done water tests there and everything is fine. Gh has risen to 16 from 10 when I last tested, bit that's it. But I wouldn't have thought that would have been enough to tip it over the edge?

Aaahhhh
