Yay im glad! My researching has paid off lol |
I was "new" for the most part, when I attempted Blue Rams. I know they are rated as "difficult" but so far they've done well, even spawned. So, if you are committed to caring for them, and keeping them in the soft acidic water etc., I think you could do Discus. They are very expensive, so a drag if they die, however. Something to think about. Beautiful fish!

im going to do more research on them. The thing ive read is that they need a mature tank, mine is of course not mature. I will be transferring water, gravel, plants along with a filter into the tank from a tank that has been running for 5 months with fish in (these fish will be moving to another tank when i empty it) i figured this is the best way to kick start my new tank. How long would you guys think i need to wait to add
