Is it ok to have a fine layer of gravel in a breeding tank ?
I am also interested to know, that when discus pairs up, does it becomes a dedicated lifetime pair or partners can change ?

I have another question: It says that the eggs will hatch in 48-60 hrs..based on the temperature.
The tank temperature is now at 29 degree C, would increasing it to 30 degree C be of help ?
