Description
If you are interested in a beautiful splash of gold color in your freshwater aquarium, then the gold diamond discus is an excellent choice. The tropical gold diamond discus is a cultivated discus that has been bred to eliminate the vertical stress bars found in naturally occurring discus. It has also been bred to produce its vibrant coloring. This stunning fish is a dazzling yellow-gold color. It is free of spots and striations on its body, but its head has a few white striations. The pectoral and dorsal fins of the gold diamond discus have white striations, and the tips of the fins are a darker color than the rest of the fish. The tail fin of the gold diamond discus is dark as well.
The gold diamond discus has a pleasantly rounded shape. This is due to its body being almost as tall as it is wide. At its full size, the gold diamond discus will reach approximately 8” in length. Its body is flat, and it has very full pectoral and dorsal fins that extend the full length of its body, contributing to the roundness of the gold diamond discus. Collectors of discus expect vivid colors, and this golden beauty is sure to satisfy even the most discriminating collector. The gold color of the fish will stand out among the vegetation in any aquarium, and the gold diamond discus is also impressive due to its large size. This is one discus that is worthy of any tropical aquarium.

Discus Purchase
I purchased 5 discus recently. They were all 2 inch purchases for my existing 135 gallon discus tank. They showed up in excellent condition and transitioned perfectly to my existing tank with 6 other discus I already had. I am very happy with my decision to purchase from Macs Discus. Thank you so much for my beautiful fish!

Gold diamond purchase
The fish arrived healthy and are doing well. It is difficult to comment on the quality or color because they are young.

Gold Diamond
This is the largest of the ones I ordered compared to the other 3" ones, maybe this one was 3.5"? A little disappointed in the depth of color, looks like a smokey dark yellow but perhaps it's just not mature enough to be in its full brightness yet. Eating well, doing great.

fantastic pair of gold diamond
Returning customer. This pair would be my 4th pair of discus from Steve. Excellent service and shipment. Eating avidly after acclimating the pair, both of which have been well fed and fat. Would expect some wigglers soon.

Gold Diamond Discus Fish" 2 inch
My Gold Diamond Discus Fish" 2 inch arrived healthy and is doing very well but I must admit that the color is not what I expected. It is much more orange in color. It is still a very pretty fish and is doing very well. I bought five different discus in all from Mac's discus and I would recommend his fish to anyone. I have bought discus from other suppliers in the past which didn't always arrive healthy with only a survival rate of 50/50. So far all the discus I received from Mac's discus are healthy and doing very well and are beautiful.
