yeah and cost me basically nothing traded in a couple of electric yellows and only paid $10 for both of them so im all :D :D :D :D :D

i have to say they look alot better now there bars are gone i assume they only had them because they were a little stressed about the move but now there settling in they look great will get a photo up in the next couple of days

believe it or not that tank was a cichlid tank it had two electric blues and an electric yellow in it with all those plants (and they weren't small i had it running for about 7 months) and say say you cant have plants with cichlids before converting it to the discus tank all i did was level the sand back out as one of them decided to dig a hole, and catch the fish. But now i will be getting rid of the rocks for a nice piece of drift wood as i think the discus will like the wood more

replanted the tank today after i put a new globe in the tank the other day and killed my big sword plants leaves went yellow and see through so i guess they got burnt anyway heres some pics i will be spreading the plants out one day but didn't feel like it today :wink:
