Ok well maybe its just me hopping but I pr'ed up two new ladies with a couple older confirmed Alenquer males.All are Forrest/Kenny discus. One is a Blue Turq and the other is a Albino Turq. Both sets laid nice sized clutches 125-150 each. Ph is at 6.0 even and a TDS reading of 70, need to get a new gH test kit so no reading right now. Each pr are housed in a 25g section of my DAS tank.

Sorry my pic skills are lacking
Blue Turq Female and 5.5-6" Still young and a bit pic skittish

And Her new mate with the eggs, His pelvic fins trail about 4" under him, not important but makes him look very nice. He is about 6.5"

Well the Albino Turq is very protective and keeps chasing the Male away so put a cover over the eggs and moved him in with another female. This time a Forrest Brilliant and guess who is laying eggs as we speak!! Right now the two male Alenquers are the only two males old enough so they are doing double duty till some of my other get a bit bigger. The color crosses are not my favorite/best choices but it lets the females get a spawn or two under there belt before I pr them with the guys I have planned for them.
