[DiscusEden]

Nice! What strain were they sold as?

Well done on the babes!

[DiscusEden]

Purdy. So not golden crystals or some such?

[viobank]

The female is a classic "pigeon blood" and the male is a crossing between a classic "pigeon blood" and a "pearl pigeon".

[the german]

mate there are like that everywhere but there need a break to get some energy back,otherwise you wont be able to use them for breeding 6 or 7 years.

Congratulations Viobank, they're lovely fish, and you've done well with the babies.

Good pairs will often have several spawns in a row, then take a rest for 6 months or so, before starting again.

[viobank]

thank you boys ! ...

Not reaaly true. In the case of discus they do not need to exert themselves to much or starve themselves (Like in the case of mouthbrooders)

I think a break of 20 days is sufficent providing they have a break every few months or so. :wink:

Discus can breed every 2 weeks on the dot with no hassles.

I love the top 2 photos especially - what's the strain?

[ADXX]

Like I said in other thread, I know very well this fish. The father is a "red marlboro", and the mother is a "snake pigeon". This fish is an exception from the rule. Is an allele caused by a regresive gene that comming up (probably) from an ancient "virgin red".

evolution....4 weeks...
