Discus Love story

[Michael A]

I stumbled across my tank this afternoon and discovered that my RGD and blue snakeskin are couples. Right next to them are jealous alenquer trying to win over the blue discus's heart by acting tough and aggressive. My Rgd might look handsome but he is cowering behind the females.

That's how to do it mate, but I believe you have to use the film icon on the tool bar, 2nd last to the right...paste in the link, remove the "s" and you should be good :thumbsup"

Nice discus and yr tank is extremely clean too.

[Michael A]

thanks for the compliment. I tried to water-change as much as I could. Hopefully my fish will stay healthy :). Thats the lesson I learned from this forum and I applied to all my tanks with great success.

Update: rgd discus showing agression. Whenever my alenquer in sight, it will get chased and attacked. Even the blue snakeskin gets to bully him. They take turns on attacking and sometimes they charge together. poor alenquer... heartbroken and excluded by his fellow peers.

They are starting to have a pecking order perhaps add some decorations to distract them, you need more discus in the tank.

yes definitely need more fish. I have some in the quarantine tank atm with 200% wc daily. Probably will put them together in display tank in a month or so once they look healthy. I will put my alenquer as hero fish when the time comes.
