If I am understanding this correctly, actuall age is not so much an issue as the start date for your batch would begin when they reach dime size Pat. it is only then that you would need documentation. As long as they have not reached that point, then you should be fine.

Al, here the video at 3 days free swimming. It is not a big spawn, maybe 30 to 35. The video shows both parents. Another interesting note is this brood is housed in my 230 display with a divider between the parents and the rest of the tank mates. Since these are wild green Tefe discus I am following Nandi's (NanDiscus) format for raising wild spawns. Nandi is one of my wild mentors.

Skip, no guts, no glory! Sure its alot of pressure at this size...but its great experience for anyone to try. Too often people breed a pair, but you never see the progression of development to adulthood. Instead theres alot big gaps in public knowledge, and that leads to many disagreements
The information we could potentially get out of a contest like this is priceless....not only to those that participate but to everyone watching and to our hobby.. Its a chance to truly improve the level of discus keeping and our knowledge base. Go for it man... you can handle it!
