TW, two batches came in @ 6cm and 8cm so yours would be one of those.
Barbara, I don't have a pic with eggs, I took a couple with wrigglers, If I can find them I'll post them here for a bit.
I don't agree with Heiko on the breeding age because my fish couldn't have been more than 14 months old,and most definitely not more than 18 months. I have read his posts and have found a lot of very useful information.
My fish were eating out of my hands from day one and have been doing so ever since. I moved them around about 10 times in a week of salt dips and they were eating almost instantly in each tank I put them, so I'm not sure about the 18 month acclimatisation either. btw no more spinning since the salt dips.
Frankly I'm a bit bored with them , now I like the one in Merrilyn's avtar.

Mine are from this batch. http://www.discusforums.com/forum/vi...=15903&start=0 Xtreme got them in store around 13 March 08. So around 6-7cm. They still had 2 left last weekend.TW, two batches came in @ 6cm and 8cm so yours would be one of those.
How long have you had yours?
One of mine is starting to look a little dark - I don't know whether or not to worry.
Who wouldn't like that one. Simply beautiful. I wish I knew how to get hold of wilds like that.now I like the one in Merrilyn's avatarPreviously known as "Tankwatcher"

I think its more about how she keeps them. I could give them to Rytis and they'd look like rare black discus within a week

Yes, that would definitely be too true. But still, if only I could find them, I could try, couldn't I?I think its more about how she keeps them.
I do still love my domestic discus, but don't think I'll buy any more. Any more tank space will be saved for wilds - if I ever find them
