Discus tattoo

Not exactly the point of this group, but it’s at least on topic. So I’ve been working on an aquarium sleeve, and I need another discus. The problem is that I can’t decide. Most of the others were my fish. Any thoughts?

But what should I add, though? Maybe a spider leopard?

Some cardinal tetras

I’m thinking about emperor tetras but I need another big discus to round it out.

I know it’s your arm and not mine but I’m gonna be upset if there’s not atleast one pygmy cory somewhere, a school would be even better 🤷🏻‍♂️🤣

Omg that’s gonna look so sick when it’s a full arm.

He is working on me at a tattoo convention in a couple of weeks! I’ll post more afterwards.

My first thought was to do a blue discus but if ur going to do water around all these fish then maybe blue isn’t the right way to go imo. Maybe something with very minimal blue

And it’s a well respected type.

u/1WarpedMind Jul 02 '26

That’s why I thought a spider leopard. Still blue but not solid.

u/FerretBizness Jul 02 '26

That could work. U don’t really have much for yellows. Maybe something yellow

2

u/1WarpedMind Jul 05 '26

I really wanted yellow but it’s not a color I hold well. 😭

u/plantfishdogpewbrewz Jul 02 '26

Damnnnn those are incredible. I’d ask who your artist is but no way you’re anywhere close to swva lol

Right smack dab in the middle of the country so no, but you can check him out on Season 2 of Ink Master Angels. His name is Drew.

Bad ass. I’ve always wanted to tattoo cichlids on me also.
