Lol ol ol as a newbie as far as discus go the only reason I ask is that I received some juvenile discus and when I feed them they respond as though they don't know what food is maybe I received slow learners. Thanks Dee

Stupid no. but they can be picky eaters if spoiled or if they are not eating what you are feeding they either don't like the menu or are sick.:)

Post up a few pics and give some more info as to the tank, fish and foods being offered and we can probably help get you past Newbie stage here. :)

Welcome to the forum!

One more try before I leave this forum I still have not received any feedback to my first question from this site, is there any one here that knows about the raising of discus fry, as you can see by the answers I received they were not helpful

Dee,
Many of us didn't know what to make of your first post. Asking about the intelligence level of juvies? What's the context? Compared to what? And the tone of it was off-putting. We have an entire sub-section on breeding discus. People share their experience. That is what is encouraged, rather than "this is what I've heard," but that still happens. Whatever your intentions are, or what you hope to get from the forum, your style has not been as inviting as most would like. Yes, I'm saying this nicely. If you have something to offer, and want to share in a non-confrontational manner, we'd be glad to hear your experience. Please also understand, if it contradicts what lots of folks are doing, it might take some time and persuasion to bring folks around.

Dee,

You may find the threads listed here helpfull: http://forum.simplydiscus.com/forumdisplay.php?406-Discus-Grow-Out-Challenger-Contest-2018
Several people have recorded there progress and methods of raising fry there. Also it somewhat depends on how old your fish are. A few common fry foods are: baby brine shrimp, beef heart flakes, chopped freeze dried australian blackworms, beefheart, etc. but if you dig through the forums you will find more information.
