What do you think of My Discus Pairs. Need Advice

[jaspax07]

I have two pairs in my 75g tank. I'm planning to separate these pairs into their own respective breeding tanks. I just want your thoughts on what the frys will look like on my pairs. should I continue or stop wasting my time on these pairs.

Thank you! more power!

PAIR 1

Super Red Melon(female) x High Body Red Turk (male)

PAIR 2

San Merah (female) x Alenquer (male)

I am not an expert by any means, with breeding or genetics, but this is what I have learned researching and taking in information in this site.
Pair 1's fry will likely have a considerable amount of peppering as you would be crossing a pigeon based fish (red melon) to a non pigeon based fish.
Pair 2 should produce lovely fry, both non pigeon based fish.
I am sure others with experience will chime in...

Correct!! I would separate pair 1. The fry will be heavily peppered and undesirable...
