180 G Planted Discus tank May 2018 update

Real quick update. Added 40 Harlequin Rasboras to tank and discus are almost full grown. I'm going to choose 12 Discus to put in the tank in a few months. Discus are around 5" to 6" right now.

    I feel like I’ve missed it. But how many fish do you have in the 180? I’m getting ready to set up a 180 or 240 and would love your advice

    Awesome tank man, one of my favorite XL tanks on KZread... it will look really awesome with those discus. Do you dose ferts and run C02 on that 180? They look like mostly low maintenance plants. Also what size is that grow out tank? How many feedings/water changes per day? Keep up the good work man, the end result is gonna be awesome.

    David Cargo I used to dose co2 at the beginning but not any more and the grow out tank is 100g and do every other day. As far as feeding I just give Black worms and beef heart rarely about 4 to 7 times a day.

    What are you doing to keep those plants so healthy? I know in your 2016 video you were dosing CO2 but those plants look stunning! What are you running for lights? Amazing update video!

    GgAcE right now I'm not dosing co2 any more and I just have finnex 24/7 lights (gen 1) and I have glass tops on so that lessens the light a little bit

    Hey Jeff looking good . What type of gouramis are those , dwarf ? Have you considered getting a small pleco? Maybe a albino bristle nose pleco would be nice . I should have pics of my old pleco on my facebook page .
