Those discus are beautiful. What is their temperment towards other fish? Humans?

Thank you, They are kept with clown loaches and cardinal tertras and get along well. Mine are very hardy and always greet me when I approach the tank(of course they always think they are gonna get fed.)

That was the plan, I'll have the 85g main tank and a divided 55g tank running on the same wet/dry filter.
 
Congrats on the spawn, but I can guarantee you that all the fry will be heavily peppered pigeon blood based fish. PB genes are one of the strongest in the discus gene pool and are 99% of the time the dominant gene in these types of crosses. The fry im sure will grow up with nice body shape and health, but dont expect anything stunning or surprising in terms of color. JMO+JME.

Thanks for the info, I wasn't sure what they were gonna end up looking like. I am just hoping to raise them to healthy juvilles and then get rid of them. I'm setting up a breeder tank know, but currently don't have much room for growing out. I will value the experience though.
 
Congrats. Good luck with the move. How big are they? They look like they still got some growing to do...If so, You will enjoy many spawns!!
