Bang up job. A great testament to how simple you can make discus husbandry when starting with good stock and keeping up with the basics. You should be proud of the fish you've raised!

Random picture, this is the "whirling" survivor now 10 months with no reoccurrences. She (?) probably has the worst shape of all of them, but might have the biggest attitude, though none of them seem to do much other than occasionally swim at each other.

This... guy? has been nose to the uplift tube on the sponge filter for 2-3 days. Every time I come around the corner. He still comes up to beg for food, but his nose is stuck to as soon as I walk away and he doesn't venture far from it.

Just snuck the camera around the corner a couple minutes after walking away. Seems mesmerized.

Re: JWCarlson's first discus tank
It’s the bubbles!! Had one doing the same thing for weeks.
. Shut the bubbles off for a few days and it’s stopped for now. Reminds me of the fish from finding Nemo.

Re: JWCarlson's first discus tank
I thought it was thinking of spawning there maybe. It chases the blue ones off but one of the checkerboards he doesn't mind being around. I might cut the bubbles, but he has lost some interest as of this morning.

Re: JWCarlson's first discus tank
Fairly sure the discus is taking up what it perceives to be a good potential spawning site... in the hopes that another Discus comes along and thinks so too.
Its a common theme in nature where there are limited good breeding areas.

Ok, today he is chasing basically everyone away. Fairly tolerant of the checkerboard though.

That’s what mine was doing. Chasing everything away.
