Hey Folks! Can you kindly take a few seconds to observe my discus (live webcam) to see if I perhaps have a pair? I'll apreciate any input from those of you who have been here before. Thx!

Hey Marfie,

I checked out your web cam. Very cool by the way. I wastched for about 20 minutes. I can't say that I see any pairing activity. Typically your pair will strongly defend an area of the tank. Typically one end or a corner. THe true pairing characteristics will be seen when they spawn. Yo'll know if they are a viable pair once the actually lay eggs and the eggs (at least some of them) hatch. Now you know that you have a male and a female and the have the capability to produce fry. Good luck and hope to hear that they are a pair! It's a lot of fun!

Thx! I really only got these discus to see if I can perhaps at a later date invest more money into it. I have had them for about 5 months, incident free. I really wasn't trying to breed or anything like that, just wanted to learn. However, if I do get an incidental pair.....well I guess I will have more learning to do! Thanks everyone for taking the time to see my webcam.
