Thank you for your inputs, I will upload pictures of the Royal Blue and the heckel pair tonight, but I cannot tell the sex of the Royal blue as for the Heckel, it looks like a male to me.

Water parameters,

Conditioned with almond leaf, (used to use peat moss).
Water change 1/3, twice aweek.

Filters, 2 internals, one overhead and one foam air filter.

200 liters ~ 50g, 5 pcs of adult discus.

Feed, frozen blood worm with added multi-vitamin and folicate, tetra bites, live shrimps.

Can u shop to America?

[trusty]

VEry nice bro way to go..................... stunning pair

[Martin_HONGKONG]

Yes, I can shop to the US.

However, with Heckel cross, not all F1 show the Heckel bar, ( I believe it is a recessive). I will grow them up into 3 inches and see if they are worth shopping out.


I have 20 pcs for the 1st brood (8 weeks old) and ~40 pcs for the 2nd brood (3 weeks old).

[Martin_HONGKONG]

Male or female? I am not sure, The Royal blue and the heckel are paired up, but no eggs!

[Martin_HONGKONG]

3rd brood of 50 frys hatched today.

They bacome better parents and care improved a lot!
