Very minimal that I can do here. I am trying to breed a pair of Discus. These are a White Butterfly Throwback a stock that I acquired when these were 2.5 - 3 inches (3-4 months old: July 2008). I was lukcy that I got 2 fish at that size and they turned out to be a Male and Female. With cichlids, this is a definite challenge at that young age. This pair is now 6-7 inches in size at about 14-15 months of age (dec 2009).
I have isolated them in a 29g breeder tank and hoping they breed for me. I am not doing any "gymanastics" with water. Change about 50% water twice a week and for the most part following a write written by a fellow hobbyist friend.
Take a look. As they say "One can only take the horse to water, cannot make the horse drink neither can you drink for the horse"
Shifting gears in the hobby to keep more wilds, I sold this pair on Jan 16, 2010 to another hobyist friend. Sad to let the pair go as I gew them to this size from 2.5 inch. But with one gone, there is always a chance for another
