After 6 weeks, I finally got a pair. As what I have read on the breeding section, all the indication was observed. For almost a week, I saw my 2 red melon depending a teritory in my 90G community tank, anybody who goes on that corner, the couple will chase em. Then yesterday and today, I saw them cleaning up the pvc tube (rena filter intake). After I did a WC, both of them are sticking their genitals on the tube from the bottom-up. I said I think this is it.:thumbsup:

I just went outside to get a fresh air, and to my surprised when I came back there are a bunch of eggs sticking on the tube. I jumped like a little kid, I can't explain the feelings. :bounce2::bounce:

So now what?

What should I do so that both the parents won't eat them nor other discus on the tank?

Calling Master April... please help.


I'm gonna post some pictures later. Here's my 1st thread when I got them from Master April: http://www.forum.simplydiscus.com/showthread.php?t=65158
