i just got some 8 week old fry form sam iam. hes a local in reno and a member here on the forum.

he has the3 coolest discus tanks. ever! he even has some discus from the famous kenny.

the fry are leapord x turk cross. i could be wrong. maybe leopard x cobalt.
right now the fry look like regular fry with almost no colors. but i will get pics later on.

they are getting fed 4- 6 times a day. water changed daily 90% . in a 40 breeder with jager heater 150 watt. i feed my beefheat seafood mix, brine shrimp flakes and golden pearls

just like a female/male human... when they are mature 2-3 years old. they will choose each other, male will have what looks like a male part. female will have a tube hanging down from belly, and will lay the eggs on a breeding cone, or peace of slate.
