Hi everybody,
This is my first post here but I have been keeping Discus for nearly 1 year now. Since then I have 2 juveniles. One is a brown with red blushes on eah side. The second is a very colourful royal blue discus. Then I have my breeding pair of what was sold to as Blue discus. They are a reachy colour n the body with blue and red fins with bits of blue running into the body.
The shop were I got them from (which is where I work) they laid2 times but each time ate them, probably from all the noise.
Since then over a period of 2 months the were sold to a couple and brought back and ended up with me.
They have settled down really well in theere 40" x 12" x 18" tank. 2 questions
1. How long is it likely till they spawn again.
2. How long should there light be on for.
Thanks. Sorry for the long thread.
Simon
P.s They are eating bloodworm, frozen dicus food, brineshrimp and daphnia
