I have a tank 55 gal with 7 discus 3 - 3.75" juvee's.
I had to separate the 2 pig eaters for 2 weeks so the others could eat.
The pigs would almost bloat out before the others would get enough food.
Everything worked out great and I removed the divider. They all now feed equally.

Now one of the blue diamonds ( smallest fish in tank ) chases the other larger blue diamond around the tank. These fish were separated and did not do this before they were separated. The chaser seems to want to keep the other Blue diamond at one end of the tank. The chaser does not stay there. It's like a dog hearding sheep
Being so young, what does it mean?
Anything.

i have observed that in my tank too.. i think it's about the food.. fighting for the food.

Ok now they are fanning next to each other so it looks like they are courting.

How young do discus pair up?
