82-85 is an ideal temperature for Discus.

Some useful information here: http://www.wetwebmedia.com/ca/volume_2/cav2i2/discus/discus.htm

I suggest you start with a freshwater, Ram. I wouldn't worry about buying a fully equipped aquarium, just go up to a pet store, and tell them what you are wanting to do.. compare the prices.

Gonna reef out this girl, just got her filled with liverock and sand at this point. Let her cycle properly. This is a 10 gallon so should be a bit challenging.

Sgt. those temps are perfect for raising discus. If you dont have a r/o filter i would suggest investing in one as well as something to replace the trace elements lost in the filtering.

I breed discus in the fall and sell them on aquabid.com

need any help feel free to pm, discus can be easy for some and a nightmare for others
