I have 5 young cobalt blue discus. All the same age. 3 of them show blue and black in the ventral the other 2 blue with pink/red. Is there any significance sex wise with this difference.

I could be wrong, but if it is, it will be a significant first in fish genetics.

So it does happen? But it is not a sexual difference.

So are you all saying that the fins will all be the same colour. And a different colour is not possible.

If I can I will post pic of the fins
