Nice tank, how big are those discus? Seems like the tank is a bit small for all that fish?

The discus'es are from 9 to 14cm and ther are 9 of them.. You usually count 50l of water/discus and since the tank is 540l its enough. But ive got one big external biological filter and 2 interal filter (one with UV filtration) and also do big water changes 2 times a week. So, the discus grows fast and are healthy. (I did get them when they were all 5-6cm)

Cool. Then that molly is overgrown :) I thought the discus are much younger (6-7 cm.)

This is my future dream tank.. 2-3 Discus pairs some slow growing tough plants and some dwarfs..

Amazing job. Please post more pics.

That molly is a monster. I guess that is what you get when it eats the same food as the discus does (oxheart, shrimpmix and other really stong food..)

I really love the anodized metal frame Swedish aquariums that I saw everyone use in Norway. I much prefer metal frames to all-glass aquariums. I still use some 30-40 year old stainless steel frame tanks.
