What type of water parameters/quality are required for Discus to breed?
The reason i ask, is that i bought 7 Discus about a month ago and 2 of them have paired up and ive had 4 lots of eggs over the last 3 weeks. None successful. It is a community tank. Just curious

Unless your water is as hard as rocks, it's probably not a water issue. Any guess on the age of the fish?..probably too young to be fertile, my first guess...otherwise, maybe not M/F, but two F....

I like for my uS to be around 60-80 and my PH to be around 6-6.5

All the discus are under 1 year old.
