    Hi @Van, and welcome to the Forum

    I also had Malawis, and then packed them in.
    I was going to get Discus, but for various reasons, went general tropicals instead. I will get Discus one day......

    Greetings Van. Do a search on the site for Discus (top right of the page - advanced search). Plenty of information here and quite a few breeders. Good luck. Discus are lovely but too much work for me!
