Some better pictures would be good.

Just bring in a shipment of juvis guys! Bring the common strains, with a few albinos and GLSS and youll be right

Wow!

I'm not sure I think of them as discus, and I'd want to put them in a seperate tank, so as not to compare them so much to the usual shape, but they're interesting fish.

Are you going to keep them? If so, could we see more pictures as they mature?

each to their own.

not my thing.

like long fin rams, good strong finnage is nice but when it gets to the point of looking deformed and mis-shapen then they should be culled.

just my opinion!

these aren't genetic one offs from what i know, they are bred like this.

like you said, each to their own

not my thing either

purposely breed and the interest appears to be growing strong in asia.

I think I'll reserve my judgment untill I see one live first ,,, interesting fish. 8-)

i think they may take a while to get used to but i would like to have some in my tank , if not just as a talking point . i think they look intresting and its not that they look deformed . the fins are they only think that look out from the standed fish we see. i must get over to have a look at them and see for my self hmmmm
