    pair of pb

    hi guys ive got a pair of pb in a breeding tank but nothing seems to be happening so should i put a cobolt blue male in there aswell to hurry the others up or should i just wait and see they have only been in the breeding tank for 2 weeks cheers matt

    Just give them some time Matt, it can take them easily that long to get used to a new tank. Give it another month at least, and I guarantee you will be seeing some action, provided that they are actually a pair

    Dont forget those daily waterchanges in the breeding tank. Nothing encourages pairs to spawn more than frequent water changes.
    Thirty-five years keeping and breeding discus, and I'm still learning :P

    I bought a pair of pb's off SLS about a month ago which I'd seen with eggs at least 3 times
    and once they went into my tank the female got sick for a couple of weeks and they were finally getting happy last week and only the day before yesterday they finally spawned
    it was driving me nuts waiting but its definitely worth it
    If you believe then you can achieve
