Ah yes, those neons will be quite tasty

I have cardinals with mine, and they are just a little too big, and too fast to become lunch.

 

[BigbruiserAl]

yeah the neons were in the tank first with my apisto's as dither fish so was just going to be hit or miss.

is that tank be enough for 4 discus?

 

[BigbruiserAl]

6 discus in 65G Tall is fine

190L is is tol small and yes a corner tank is not ideal, min recomend if 55G for 6 Discus. Discus like a tall tank as well

Discus need to be in packs 2 will stress themself out possible leading to death min group of 4, 6+ is the recomended

You would have to buy a breeding pair. otherwise they beed to be in groups. I have a breeding pair by themselves because the male destroyes all other discus besides the female.
