Congrats, everyone!! May your babies turn out to be big, healthy and gorgeous!!
Thanks to the success of our First Annual Discus Hobbyist Challenge and the interest it generated, this year's contest drew a much larger number of submissions from our members wishing to participate.
The contest fish for our Second Annual Discus Hobbyist Challenge were generously donated by Forrest of DiscusForrest and Kenny Cheung of Kenny's Discus. Kenny and Forrest have worked hard at SimplyDiscus to build a strong reputation for high quality fish and outstanding customer service. SimplyDiscus would like to send a big Thank You to both of you!
This year's contestants are:
- 2075turner (Evelyn T)
- acroken (Kenny H)
- avionics30 (Chad H)
- calihawker (Steve R)
- fishyj (Jim H)
- kirkp (Kirk P)
- MRQuad (Marvin R)
- wgtaylor (William T)
The control group will be raised by... me. I better not screw this one up!
Each member selected has been given a designated sub-forum in which to post frequent pictures and logs/updates of the contest fish. The contest will run for approximately six to eight months at which time a winner will be selected.
You can read the original discussion thread for the Second Annual Discus Hobbyist Challenge here.
This contest is dedicated to the memory of our dear friend and fellow hobbyist, Barb Newell.

HI all,
Just wanted to update everyone on the Fish status... These beauties are doing very well.. They've been here a few days now and are settling in nicely. Currently they are eating Hikari Frzn Bloodworms,Ocean Nutrition Formula one pellets(small), and my homemade surf and Turf beefheart seafood mix. They have been getting multiple feedings a day and 100% wc per day. All the fish are extremely healthy...I have not treated them with anything at all as of yet....I will be giving them a single dose of Prazi before I ship them to remove any possible tapeworms... What the contestants do with them after that is soley their responsibility.
I am planning to begin shipping these fish after May 18Th and hope to everyones fish out of here by May 22 nd.
take care all,
al
