Stunning. That leopard snakeskin is truly a standout. I'm loving the patterns on that one.

Re: Favorite Discus

Got a mystery discus here, anyone know the strain? This pic doesn't do him justice, he's way more vibrant blue in person.

Re: Favorite Discus

Appreciate the kind words. I'm thinking maybe a blue tiger torquoise discus, given the vertical stripes and that blue color. Beautiful fish indeed, even with a poor pic.

Re: Favorite Discus

I really like those. I have an orange pigeon blood that looks similar. are the Red eagles a pigeon strain?

Yeah, I think they are. My Red Eagles don't have the heavy peppering like some other pigeon strains, probably due to the breeding and tank setup. I also give them red factored food, might be helping with the color.

Re: Favorite Discus

Gorgeous fish! I couldn't tell that was 75 g, they must be hugh fish and that's a giant sponge filter.

They're massive, I know. My Blue Diamond, 5" from Hans, looked tiny compared. These girls are 6.5" plus and they eat like champs. Had to remove the Blue Diamond, male, since the female was bullying him. Now she's picking on her partner - guess they wanted the pad all to themselves.
