Actual Discus.com Customer Reviews, Ratings, & Tank Photos

"Fulfilling my customers' wildest discus dreams inflates my ego like a balloon." -- Michael Li, "King of the Aquarium" and Creator of Discus.com

Discus.com is the only e-commerce website on the internet that provides actual customer photo reviews for purchased fish.  Join our newsletter and never miss a beat.

In addition to providing our viewers with delightful aquarium design ideas, these photographs are intended to illustrate the variability and wide spectrum of a fish's appearance. Factors affecting appearance include temperature, stress level, diet, aquarium shadow level and substrate darkness (the less and lighter, the more colorful the fish will be), in-water vs out of water, as well as differences between baby discus and adult specimens. Also, as discus enthusiasts, most of our customers are NOT professional photographers. Please keep these points in mind when enjoying the gallery.

Hi,



Sent you guys a 2:48 video of the 210. All of these fish are from DM, except the juvee Clown Loaches. The 75 is stocked with your Cardinals.



The 210 has a bioload that that would not normally be advisable. This the filtration:



FX6

FX4

Eheim canister, a biggie

2x110 Aquaclear HOB

25% H2O  changes every 3-4 days.



All the plants are live Anubias,  EXCEPT

the tall artificial ones at the back. I have to wait for my Congensis to fill in.



The tank is now exactly one year old. It replaced a 180 that blew a seal overnight, drained entirely leaving dozens of dead fish. I was able to save five Clowns I’d had for twenty years.



All  3 tanks are now completely scaped and stocked.



May not hear from me for awhile, unless my wife relents and lets me add another tank. I’d love to dry those colorful funny looking pancakes with eyes LOL.



Love your fish. I know that whatever I order I don’t have worry. The quality of the stock, the manner of packing and handling and shipping are top drawer.



Sebastian

Here is my current setup. Big yellow turned out to be the tank bully. He killed that Creamsicle looking one that was supposed to be a snakeskin. But he was more orange panda looking. Everyone else is great.

Michael, Lost one of the discus this morning! I have been treating them with metroplex, as some of the other ones showed signs of stress. Hoping for the best.  I am enclosing some photos of the first order I got in January. These guys have really grown. They were 3-31/2 inches when I got them.

Yes, everything is fine. That 45 gal was my original tank, the 50 gal in the corner has my first fish that became a breeding pair, got a couple tanks of fry. The system is 20, 20 gal tanks. We plan on buying 3 breeding pairs in a couple months once the system is dialed in :)

Would’ve been 5 stars, were it not for the following:

1. The base color wasn’t as white as I’d requested.

2. Large section of the body next to the tail has missing patterning.
