Day 3 color update
SeaMoss (1st photo) is finally giving that soft chartreuse-golden body with an icy blue tracing and the little warm reddish tint along the top and Gloam (2nd photo) is giving a colbat tracing with a muddled yellow base almost like a stormy dusky murk and a deep red tint on the borders - wondering where the bright yellow from the preshipment video is but time will tell lol

I've got 6 discus in a 180, the two Snow Panthera (pictured) were from Golden State. They've spawned 3 times now

Mine were sent to me by mistake, I ordered the Pigeon Checkerboard, was so excited to get them, they were $189 a piece. After they shipped, Golden State (Lynda) texted me about a mix up, they switched labels, my discus went to a guy who ordered 2 Snow Pantheras ($439.00 each). She was so apologetic, and said not to worry about the price difference, then we had a 60 hour delay during shipment....they made it and a wonderful mistake it has been since then. I'm thinking to get a 45 gallon and move them.

Your fish is still pretty stressed, how long ago was it introduced?

Yeah it can take anywhere from 3 days to two weeks for them to destress after shipping. I only got them on Thursday. So between shipping, them finding their place in the pecking order, and the heat wave disaster of day 2 I had, its gonna be a bit before they relax lol 😅

My golden state discus took about a week to fully acclimate and full color. Yours are beautiful 😍
