    Discus don't wait for anything, sometimes not even for a divider to be removed. I don't remember who posted it but I LMAO when I saw the pics of a female laying on one side of a clear divider and the male making passes on the other side. If they do spawn before you get the new tank set up it'll just be another week before they go again, no worries.

    I am pretty sure that they will never ever spawn again because they are just not capable ;-)

    So I have them in the new tank now with one of Barb's (Disgirl) cones. My husband asked me if I was gonna have another "ugly" tank (i.e. BB). I said it will still have pretty fish in it besides, I still have 5 other tanks with plants.
    My 75 G DT is looking kinda empty now.

    So, I had the pair in their own tank for almost 3 weeks with one of Barb's cones and nothing happened. Yesterday, I decided to put the fry from my 1st pair into that tank since they are now 32 days old and take this pair out and put them back into the 75 gallon DT. I woke up this morning and saw that they had laid eggs in the 75 DT. What is up with that??????

    I finally have this pair in their own tank now so the fry did not become food for the other fish this time.

    Bill should post some pictures of what the fry will grow up to look like. He's growing out some nice ones.
