Him and his wife (Renata i Andrzej Nowicki of Superdiscus)) bought their heckels in January 2009 from the same source what ours are.

Awesome videos....gives those of us Heckel enthusiasts hope!!

As for the older post, there was never an update past the initial pictures and I don't even believe Aquatechnics is still in business. Not sure if the batch of babies ever made it to adolescent size.

I notice that too. It won't be accepted as a Heckle x Heckle spawn unless both parents are in the pic with the fry.

[DiscusKev]

Only Gajowa and her friend would know, I agree with Kacey though as it could easily be a cross with another discus and the other half was taking out of the tank.

I agree. Heckel males will breed with other females. The trick is to get the females to spawn.
I've had mine for 3 years now and no signs of pairing activity at all. I've tried every thing. Now they are in my hard well water and I'm just enjoying them.

There looks to be 2 heckels in that vid to me.... thats proof enough for me. any chance of sharing water stats?

Nope, thats not two heckels. Look again. It is the reflection of the one on the tank glass.

As far as I know, the ph of breeding water was 3,7. The region of Poland where he lives has an excelent water for breeding discus and he uses just tap water !!!
