    Strange that it also have a obvious bump on the head. Do you breed them?

    na not breeding but if they want to spawn in my tank...well so be it. like the discus if they are happy it will happen. not trying any thing here its just a show tank. she "the one on the left big belly" they have been cleaning leaves for some time now, just waiting to see what happens. started with six angels and waited for them to pair off. got my pair and sent the rest back to lps

    sorry it took so long to post a pic. my laptop hangs when i try to upload, well its the browser that plays up, anyway. as you can see i have sold my angels and my melon discus. i have also add a few more smaller fish. i`v put in six zebra loaches,had a bit of a snail prob. well its been about three months and iv seen one or two of the little pests. six SAE to tackel some of my alge, and for a few months i had a loan balloon ram. bought a mate for him and it was love/hate from the word go. ill update next time stuff changes.
    cheers doug

    @doug. Beautiful tank man. Love the contrast the Discus brings against the green plants. Awesome.
