well my local has had them from 2.5inchers for £12.50 to a breeding pair £100.

Around £20 ea for a 5incher around here.

A nice pair in there. With some small shoalers, cardinals are often kept with discus, as are rummynose tetra.

A nice fine gravel is good. Good for plants and looks nice. Lots of shelter for them as they are shy but much bolder when they have somewhere to hide. bogwood and flat stones. Provide a vertical smooth surface for them to possibly lay eggs.

How much do you want to pay? They can be bought from around a fiver for common colours but for a wild caught adult I've seen them in the thousands.

do lots of research. And look into making your own food. Much easier. They aren't as hard to keep as many will tell you. And tap water bred babies are available as well now so much easier then many think

Thanks Mike

I was hoping to see if I could keep black knife fish in there with them??? Maybe 1 of those and then a couple of smaller fish I like bleeding heart tetra

We have a very fine black granite gravel and I am fine to remove the diver and the shopwreck if necessary

Do they like a planted tank? Anything in particular that they like or dislike?

Again, thanks everyone for the help can't wait now to get it up and running Shall set it up properly tomorrow and then leave it to settle and be sure it is right for a week before I go find me some fish

knifefish won't be good. Eat small fish and get big.

Best to avoid the diamond shaped tetras, as in bleedin hearts, diamond tetra, columbian blues and serpaes as a few examples. Many people say they upset discus. dunno why to be honest.

wooohoooo I like the diver hehehe

Would the ship wreck be okay in with discus or would it be too inhibiting for them and maybe be replaced with some slate pieces that are smooth adn stuff?
