Hello folks!

Today I brought my first WC discus. They should be Tefe, but I think there are two diffrent. I will post some pics later, and please ID them

Here are some of pics of discus. They are not good, it's photoed by telephone:



Is it possible that it is a alequer?

Congrats on your purchase and good luck with them. Hope they bring you lots of enjoyment. With regards to what you have, I definately see at least one Tefe in the photos....the others are difficult to tell. You would also need to consult with the importer as to the location where they were caught to be accurate. Blues can be quite difficult to tell from one location to another

I didn't buy them from importer. I bought them from one who had recieved them from father who has died. His father has worked in Germany and he import here directly from Germany. Discus aren't shy and they know people and they eat all food. I know only Heckel and TeFe discus, for Curipera I know only when it's all red
Thank you for your wishes

Is it normal for them to be in that position most of the day? They eat and sometimes they fight for they'r place in tank?

Hi! I must tell, that my wild's are all OK, just one is little thin and shy, but I change water twice a week, it's better.
Is it possible now to breed them? I think that "Alequer's" shaking sometimes, just like breeding dance at hibrids? Is all the same at wild discus as hibrids?
Do wilds breed just when it's rain?

Anyone?

Hi Zbiljc

Very difficult to tell sometimes. I have curipera that look like alenquer and alenquer that look like curipera. I think when fish are sent from the Amazon, the possibility exists for some mixing and confusion.
