Thank you. Hopefully I get time to update this thread once I have moved this rack to a new location in the house.

Build a new rack... or modify the current one. ?

I was looking through my mobile for photos to post and realise I have a lot of baby photos. Haha. New daddy syndrome? In my defence, I have many photos of my discus babies too. Apologies... these photos don't do them justice as they are just mobile phone snaps.

Some PRL culls from @Gbang.

CRS from the G dude... always my all time favourite.

Some of my discus babies... working on this heckel cross pair. Over the last 20+ years keeping fish, nothing beats the sight of a pair of discus with fry attached.

Those are some healthy discus, I used to breed them about 18 years ago, I had ultra high body and high fin, but those a really rare these days if you are after some good quality ones.

Thank you. Yeah they are great quality discus of German lineage. Due to family and young kids, I was not able to devote my time to them as much as I would like to so I have since sold them back to the person who sold them to me in the first place. He has been a discus breeder for many years so I know he will look after them well and keep their progeny going within Australia.

Thank you. This rack is still running but I am planning to strip it all down, move it to the garage and set it all up again.

Been a while since I posted in here.

Currently running 3 racks but getting a bit too much with family/kids/work commitments.

Finally decided to shut down this rack so it is now for sale if anyone is keen. I am in Brisbane.

Send me a PM if you would like to view it.

Also have heaps of other stuff for sale e.g. Biospon filters, Eheim 2213 and 2215, a few Hailea HC-250A chillers, etc. See my sale post here: 

Cheers,

JC

This rack has been sold and picked up.

I am very keen to see how this rack looks like once it is set up again.

Hopefully the new owner will update and continue this thread.

What a journey.  Hope the downsize gives you more headspace to enjoy more the tanks you're keeping jc.
