Very much stunted, they have had a rough life so far. Hopefully they will do better in your care. :)

Hi there ujwaldignified, not to get off the subject but it's best if you submit one thread about your juvenile discus. You will probably get more responses believe it or not. ;)

There is nothing miraculous you can do to save your Discus. All the help was already given. You need to just take good care of them. Give them clean water and feed them often, but don't overfeed them at each feeding. Other than that, it is just gonna take alot of patience on your part. Your fish may be stunted but they can still develop into nice looking fish. They just weren't off to a good start but you can help them out. Keep us updated on their development.

Take care
Eddie

Thanks a lot. Finally, i got a kind of satisfactory reply. And that happened bcz there are people who can understand the feeling of a Discus owner when his pets are at risk. Thanks for the reply.
I will do that for sure.
In the LFS, they were actually kept in a 2X2X2 tank with many other adults. May be the adults induced those harmones which stunts the juvies...
I will take care of them like a real Discus. Will surely keep u all posted. Thank you.
