All a pleasure to have fry. Lucked out with first attempt at discus breeding. One pair had about 200 fry. They are now about 110 days old have about 120-130 remaining. Have lost some along the way, specially around “the 30 day syndrome”. Slow grower . enjoy them
@@sopbape8120 you can change 20 -50 % every second day. Dont get disappointed if you loose some along the way. “ is difficulty to keep them alive” sometimes. The store i use more often said that. They have many years of experience and the also have difficulty keeping them alive. Feed them frequently. And if you can use potassium permanganate once a week. Used by many discus breeder that do it professionally. Thanks for your question
@@josepolanco1228 thanks for your response, how much do you feed the discus when they're in the breeding tank, when they lay their eggs and when the frylings hatch?
It is such a wonderful thing to see happening, myself I have 3 breeding couples in my show tank, and not able to place more then 1 more breeding tank which holds now 3 weeks old fry, second time breeding from this pair, I have a little over 100 babies free out swimming and eating.. will wait till the 5th week to remove parents.. but yes it is a awesome journey to take.
Congratulations on 20,000 followers 😊. I subscribe to four aquarium channels, one pure science, one pure aqua scaping, one fish knowledge and one pure enjoyment of the hobby... guess which one you are?
What's your plans for fluke issues with the fry? If they start dieing that'll be what the issue usually is but I'm sure you already know that. What will you use if this happens Graeme? Enjoyed this video a lot
To be honest, I'm not sure. When I was breeding more regularly I only encountered / noticed flukes a couple of times, and was advised to try PP at a low dose, but I'm not sure how effective it was in the end
How many water changes do you do like when they havent laid eggs, when they do lay eggs, and when they're free swimming and you moventhem to another tank?
Great vid! My discus barely touch brine shrimp. Their preferred food is my homemade which is mainly salmon, squid, mussels and spinach. Beautiful breeding. Thanks for the params. I thought I learned on this channel that the low TDS/EC water was mainly for hatch rate 🤔improvement. It would be great to see you review or react to a video of a pro Discus Show if you haven't already.
Hello, greetings from Mexico. Excelent content. I would like to know your point of view about the fact that I had a clutch with a high fertilization rate, without fungus, but on the third day, prior to free swimming, the hatched fry detached themselves from the cone, falling and dying (or perhaps they died first and then fell). Thank you.
