What does it mean when discus doesn't go into a feeding frenzy?

Thoughts? Normal or sign of disease? Treatments?

Relax - many discus don't attack their food a lot of the time - in fact some seldom do.
Non-rushed feeding can be a standard in many cases - so not abnormal.
Not a sign of disease and no treatment needed - just be happy that they're eating.

As long as he got a full , allmoast bolated belly after the feeding , there's no need to worry about its eating habits Jeff .
They also depend from the number of discus and the way they are fed. More discus and limited food and space almost always enhance their feeding frenziness as opposed to abundance of food during feeding and smaller numbers in large tanks.
