Pairing Up

[HTown Discus]

Say I was to order (20) 2 inch juvenilles. How long does it typically take for them to start pairing up. I know that there are a lot of other factors involved, but at what size do they become "sexually active".

EDIT: So it takes from 8 - 18, but what size are they at this point? Also, how many time a year do they typically breed?

the size depends on how well u feed them and wc's i have some that are 6-7months old and they are 3-4 inch's and have some that are 4-5 inch's not sure how old but they are not old enough to breed yet trying to pair off thou
i'm sure someone with a little more expeince can give u a better time line on that

Size and breeding frequency vary too. Figure 5 - 6 inches and every couple of weeks.
