If the solid goldens are not PB why not put everyone in a large tank and allow them to pair up naturally. If you like the pairing raise the fry and see what you get?

HI everyone, I'm setting up a decent sized room to hopefully breed Discus. I have a few pairs and have had limited success up to now ( Blue Diamonds, Solid Golden, Cobalt, Scarlet Snakeskin, Snow Leopard and Galaxy Turks ) I have it in my mind to buy one more batch of fish and then resist the temptation to bring in any new fish as I'm sure that sooner or later disease will raise its head. So I'm looking for advise on what strains that maybe could be crossed with each other after time and also with the fish that I have ?
I realise it's a complicated question, but hopefully there's an expert out there who can give me some ideas.
Thanks in advance

Your discus are talking to you....are you listening
HI Pat, all the ones I have are pairs except the Snow Leopards, which are a group of 8
BD, cobalt and snakeskin might get you some scorpions. If you have mixed pairs.
If you don't cross any of your pairs you can still end up with a mix variety of Discus as current Discus are
crosses anyway for example when breeding snakeskins the result can be plain brown with 8 stress bars, turquoise scribble, turquoise straight lines, turquoise pearl pattern,snakeskin plain 14 stress bar, snakeskins reds, snakeskin maze patterns, snakeskin fine line, snakeskin vertical
line. These are call STAT Discus.

Also it's best to use blue SS to get scorpions. I saw scarlet after the my post.
Thanks for your replays guys, I obviously have a lot to learn. Maybe I'm thinking too far ahead.
