I would just start reading in the breeding section if I were you. I don't want to sound harsh but it's all there.
1. depends on strain of discus.. spawn takes 2-3 hours.. they can spawn a week apart.
2. takes about 2 1/2 days depending on temp and strain.
3. 2-3 weeks after attaching to parents.... i would guess

All of this information can be found in the breeding section.

agreed...on doing some more reading


But
1. 5 or 10 minutes once the female starts laying. There's a lot of buildup and whatnot, though. They'll pick at the pot for a day in advance. Dancing a day before that.
2. mine take about 55 hours
3. depends how well you grow baby brine shrimp. two weeks for me
