Young Red Turquoise Discus

[wasc]

Hello Folks,

I'm happy to find an international Discus fan forum. These are my first pictures of the young red turquoise. If you see any problem, please share your opinions..Pictures are a little bit low quality, sorry for that.

Kind Regards,

Really nice discus , nice and round they look great .

Beutiful fish! to me they look more like fine line snakeskins, (to be fair snakeskins and turks are the same fish just snakes have finer scales and more stress bars)

I'd be Very hapy to have fish like that in my tank.

nice shape! Bit beaky if im honest, and not so "red". But i would definitely have one, a lot of nice character- great find.

@ILLUSN, i didnt know that about turqs and snakes, wow...thats the great thing about forums, you never stop learning (unless your silly).

I was wondering about the "beaky shape of the mouth" now I'm more certain about my concern. Is there a cure or way to manage the problem? I also thank other friends for their messages thank you very much.

Hi Wasc,

To my knowledge its just genetics, nothing you can cure as far as i know... dont let it upset you- these are very nice!

Can you guess about the species?

I'm counting 9 stress bars in the video, which I think makes them Turqs not Snakeskins. Please correct me if I have it wrong.

Either way they are absolutely beautiful fish!!!

[Discus Planetarium]

they are snakeskins.snakeskins do have stress bars they all look good and big well done...
