They are stunning! Are they all wild or do you have some tank-bred?

Color morphs are formed in-tank, but they all started from plainer, wild Discus.

 

[DarkEntity]

so the plain, duller ones are wild where the bright colourfull ones arent?

The aabove images you said are wild Discus...they seem pretyy dull compared to some bright red and blue ones ive seen that were tank bred, hence my thought that the wild ones above looked dull

Had a look at that site, they look ok i spose, not as colourfull as id have expected thats all.

everyone to their own.
