My Discus have been kept in 50 gallon tanks, seperated according to type, 5 Discus per tank. They were just starting to pair off; I had 2 pairs spawn in 2 seperate tanks. But, I had to shut down my 50 gallon tanks temporarily, so everyone got tossed into a 230 gallon tank. Now, one of the Ocean Greens has paired up with a Red Spot Green. :( Question is, once I get my 50s back up and running, if I seperate the pair, will I have a Romeo & Juliet syndrome happening, or will they eventually pair up with their own kind?

They don't pair for life, and will quite happily accept new partners when you change tanks again.

Don't worry. :P
