Have had Discus for about a week. They seem very shy, but

are eating. Some of the fish will hover around one of the

red discus and seem to be cleaning him, not nipping. He

doesn't seem to mind much and will turn on his side at

bottom of tank and not freek out. He will uprite himself

and swim away and the others seem to leave him alone. This

happens 2 or 3 times a day while I am home. Discus don't

move around much and will stay pretty much together. When

this cleaning is going on 1 or 2 other Discus will hover

around him. As far as I can tell this only happens to 1

Discus. Ever heard of this, what is it?

What is your tank setup like? Size? Bare bottom? Background? Lighting? Temp? Type of filtration? More details please and perhaps some pictures to better assess the situation. :)

:bandana: How many discus total & how old (size)? W/C regimen? Nutrition regimen? AS stated above details are vital to help & pics are worth a thousand words. "T"
