Hi All,

Hi Rob,
I have seen my discus do this, not all the time but some do brush up against the plants.My discus are in great health so i don't think anything of it but maybe other's with more knowlage might shine some light on the subject.

How often do they do that Rob? Once or twice a day is pretty normal, any more than that, and I'd begin to think some kind of skin irritation. Could be water based, or a parasite.
Keep up the water changes, and just watch them for a while.

Not very often i would probably see one or two of them do it each day

i have been watchiing them and have noticed that it seems like they do it after feeding, guess they must get some on them while eating and need to clean it off
