...Getting the new 125 delivered today...gotta do a couple modifications to this monster heavy credenza I picked up to put it on...I plan to get it up and running within the next month...It will be planted using either white or black sand...I hope to try some discus with aldofoi cories in it...
...An interesting note...Liz...there are a number of aquarists here keeping discus in the hard tap water of the area...They seem to be thriving and even spawning...I have yet to learn of any of the spawns hatching, though...My intention, at least at this point, is not to spawn them...I don't want to set up nursery and grow-out tanks...
...a steady PH..and timely water changes.....just like angels..... |^|
..night all..off to read for a while.... :)
