Hey guys.
Newbie here...got my 55g tank and discus a few months ago. I house 4 discus, a ram (doesn't bother anybody), and two cory catfish. These discus have made the end of my work days enjoyable--as they now eagerly greet me when i come home wondering what their evening meal will be (bloodworms, beefheart or b.shrimp). Anyhow...
My roomate bought and brought home a small school of 5 neon tetras yesterday. I told him that he should really consult me before buying anything for the tank (but in his defense, i don't think he realized how picky I am about my discus environment). In the end, I thought adding them would be harmless...anyhow, my pigeon blood and brilliant turquoise discus gave chase, and eventually did a quick job of killing them. Two of the remaining neons are unaccounted for--so I assume they were just flat-out eaten.
Should I be worried these little guys were (possibly) factored into my discus' diet?
Thanks!
