Tanya81 Fish Addict Posts: 633 Kudos: 419 Votes: 37 Registered: 27-Jun-2003	Edited by Tanya81 In your opinion, we need some info on what are the best plants that are suitable for discus. We have very good lighting, 1.1 watts/gallon.. i believe. but we have grown plants with it in the past with success. What kind of plants do discus like? 72 gallon bowfront:Tanganyikan Lake set up 75 gallon: A. Baenschi trio,Cyanotilapia Afra Cobwe(4), copadichromis trewavase, protomelas sp. tangerine tiger(breeding pair)

Generally speaking the package would be for the Amazon and its tributaries. Note that they say your minimum light should fall around where you figure yours is. http://www.azgardens.com/habitats_south.php Frank -->>> The Confidence of Amateurs, is the Envy of Professionals <<<--

Type "discus" into the search box in the upper right hand corner. The article is a two part feature and it is excellent. This link to a thread at Simply Discus will give you many more: http://www.simplydiscus.com/forum/showthread.php?t=30631 __________ "To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism; to steal from many is research." researched from Steven Wright
