It's hard to figure out your problem when your post is blurry. What do you feed your fish? At the rate you fed thrice a day, your water changes should have been adjusted to daily especially when you consider the amount of poo they excrete and tank size. What is the temperature?

k i got some better pics

its not covering the red like the other ones and a little curled in
 
Its a deformed discus. I forget the proper name but its a deformed gill thus inferior. I think Wattley said from Asian overbreeeding?? I have one too but his is only on 1 side, yours to probably, so I only photo him from that side. Its not a cull, its a beaut!
 
I would say that it could be really stressed, or the gills are inflamed with a infection. I would be worried too since you say the skin is coming off. can you define that? when you say coming off are you talking about like it coming off as if there where baby discus feeding on the? can't think of the word but the parents produce it and the baby discus get feed, or you talking about pealing off like it's got a sun burn?

I'm sorry to hear that, if you lived the dfw texas area I'd sell you some of my juvies for a good price.

Since you are in the Bay Area, I really suggest you contact Kenny Cheung over in Daly City for some of the best quality discus you will find anywhere. If I lived that close to Kenny, I'd always be broke! :ROFL:You can reach him most afternoons PST at (650) 290 1283. He usually gets at least one very large shipment a month, but they don't last long. Tell him Darrell from North Carolina sent ya! :D
