Wow Sandy, they're nice, but I have absolutely no idea.

A ghost maybe, or a cross between a ghost and something else?

Perhaps a blue diamond crossed with a turk ????

they are very nice sandy good shape , the colour is very diffrent and sorry i dont now what they are . very diffrent

[samir]

i think they are snakeskins :shock:

[SandyLynne]

The LFS called them marlboro which they certainly are not

They were a darker orange when I first bought them and as they have grown they have become lighter. Their growth has been amazing and were yesterday moved into my large tank with other discus.

I think they are absolutely beautiful but would love to know what they are.

Thankyou for your help, I will just watch and admire them. :colour

Samir, I originally thought Snakeskin also as they had many bars when they were young and a couple of them still do, but they are very different to my older Snakeskin.

Somewhere between a Ghost and a Leopard for mine, new strain Sandy, 10 bar Ghost Leopard.

Thanks Mac

I think these fish are beautiful, and look great with their fellow tankmates.

Mac at oakligh aquariam used to sell them years ago as .. and you will love this "peacock discus".

in reality its just lower grade coloured red white discus. They seem to however have been crossed ?? mixed bag hey - well thats what i think anyway.

they look nice big and healthy so as long as you enjoy them thats all that counts
