Fianl Qiestion, Angles or Discus?

and "final", "angels", and "ecstatic"

I think it should depend on what you like more. Personally, I've always been a fan of angels.

kinda depends on how much experience you have. Both are my #1 & 2 favorites. Just started keeping discus with a 150g devoted to 15 of them. Have kept & bred angels for 50 yrs.

I like angels more, personally. I dont like the vertical lines on a discus. They remind me of a stressed fish. And angels can be more aggressive, which I like. For me it is going to weird doing a peaceful community. ROFL
And angel are just more pretty, I know discus are colourful, but I have always liked angels.

angels top my list

Being an engineering major, I'm all about the angles.

Sorry, had to.

Angels for me as well, Discus look cool if you really nail their setup but Angels are so much easier to deal with and they look a lot better.

Well, I've kept and bred Angels, but for me Discus win the contest, hands down.
Not only for their magificent coloration, gracefulness, and personality/character, but for the sheer satisfaction of meeting the challenge of keeping them successfully.

Well said paul.
Discus are a good challenge, and very rewarding when raised successfully.

I am an angel person as well!

But... whats the big deal with discus? I have tried them and never had an issue, even got a pair to breed.

Then again I am the person who can keep challenging fish alive without issue, but can't keep guppies alive.

Well, maybe you just got a little lucky, who knows - lol
But good for you in any event - it's not that easy - so you must have done some things right!

I angels. I love laboring over my tank and fish but discus just seem like so much work and quite expensive!

Its not for everyone, discus do require 90% more attention than angelfish...

Like comparing apples and oranges.

Ha, same here. In my species tank for convicts, my pair just won't breed. In my display tank, my otos are having at it...
