Discus growth rates!!

[Matt15]

I've seen a few threads about growth rates so I thought i'd share these pics with you. I purchased this little checkerboard pigeon blood a few months ago and he has exploded in growth.
Downside is that my tank setup encourages peppering but I'm not about to giveup the plants and driftwood just yet.

If you've got some growth rate photos share them here..... :D

I bought this Albino Pearl Diamond at the same time.
Don't know why but Albino's seem to have a much slower growth rate, but he's getting there.

"growth rate photos "

Awesome topic this is, its amazing to see how they change in colour as they grow. I will post some photos of mine very soon.
Nice fish you have there.

I started a thread a little while ago, might be worth bumping it up to the top again, but it shows 'then and now' pics of some of our fish, take a look and add to it if you can, it's quite interesting to see how shape and colours/patterns change over time.

I'll add mine there and hopefully somebody with admin access can lock this one up.
