have you successfully bred in your community tank? i imagine its pretty hard.. I had 2 females that used to try and lay eggs together in my big tank.. the cory's were on them as soon as they could lay

they spawned last saturday, the fry harched monday but by today they started to swim and the other fish had them, thinking that its brine shrimp maybe but i just finished to set up a 120L tank to breed them separatelly. i have the sponge filter matured already in another tank so after i come back from wexford i'll test the water and if everything is ok i'll put them in the tank

if you have any questions that i may be able to help with please dont hesitate to ask. I have 6 breeding tanks running at the moment and have my fair share of disasters that i might be able to help you or anyone else on here with. had some good success with Blue diamonds that are proving hard to breed at the moment world wide

Hi all

Breeding Discus is no harder /easier than most egglayers. providing you follow the rules. but be prepared to cull and have an outlet for them, posted some pics of my youngsters some time ago don't know if they are still on the site. will have a browse

My Blues are too young at the moment but are comming along, 2 are stuggling look like there runts and havnt grown much since I got them, the others are twise the size and developing well with some lovely colouring. Hopefully in 6 month plus they may start pairing up.

I am now among the ranks of the discus owners. i got 4 from chris today. 2 pigeon bloods, a marlborough red and a brown.

put them into my tank tonight and so far they are hiding..hopefully they will survive their first night
