    Looking good Are those bruises on your discus? (the black spots) I've seen them on my saulosi when they run into the rockscaping. I love the third shot, that's one beautiful fish.

    The spots are what's known as "peppering" and is known to occur frequently with pigeon based discus.

    To the OP, nice tank, but why the big pot in the middle? I find it a bit distracting from the otherwise nice layout.

    thats what im thinking to, tomorrow im going to see how it looks without the larger pot. might give the tank a cleaner more open look and let the plants be noticed a tad more.
