    Man you have some stunning fishes there.

    I especially like the coloration of the gill plates on the Marlboro.
    The pic you posted 4 days ago are those Heckel Discus? Sorry not too familiar with discus:embarrest:

    Unfortunately not Heckel's. Their parents are male ring leopard and female RSG. I can already see the red spotting coming through on 4 of the 5 juveniles.
