Hi,
I have a 75 gallon tank with 6 discus. I've had them for almost 6 months. They were all about 2 1/2 - 3 inches when I got them, and now several are 4 inches or so and there is one that hasn't grown much at all. I've read that you should get an odd number and the LFS has a very nice 3 or 3 1/2 inch discus. (I originallly ordered 7 and one didn't come.) If I add the new discus to the tank, it will be tied for the 2nd or 3rd smallest (i.e. 3 current fish much (an inch or so) bigger, 1 current much smaller and two curent fish close in size). Is this a very bad idea?
