You just can't help but stare at the pictures. I know it sounds redundant, but really good job.

Where can your CO2 reactor be purchased at?

Please contact info@elosusa.com for further information

This weekend I made a new video where you can see the interactivity of the Discus and how I feed them

Hello, I have recently discovered your discus tank and must say it is the most beautiful discus tank i have ever seen. I have even set your picture as the wallpaper on my computer! I am just beginning to get into discus and planting. I was wondering what type of tenellus is on the floor of your tank. From your pictures it looks like it stays very short and does not get too thick. I was hoping you would be able to tell me if it is naturally like that, or if you have to trim it to keep it thin and short. Also I was wondering what fish I could add to combat the growth of algae on the leaves of my amazon swords. Thank you for your time. -Matt

Hi Matt,

The foreground plant is Echinodorus tenellus and you need to trim it frequently to keep it down, otherwise will grow too much. To avoid some algae problems and clean the exceed food that you will give to discus, use Crossocheilus siamensis, Pitbull Pleco (LDA25) and Otocinclus affinis.

Here it is some new pictures of my tank (9 months old)

Wow FAAO,

The videos are awesome by the way. I am curious though how long did it take for you to train the discus to allow petting them? I think that is so cool how your fish trust the master's hands!

Another cool effect I like in the video is how when the discus face you a certain way they disappear into the black background.

Great job!
