They look like normal wildform Symphysodon aequifasciatus to me.
Pretty lil things =)

Dont know if its a pair or not though, sexing discus is pretty darned tricky.
Put in a breeding cone and youll find out soon enough

What do you feed them?

 

[Death Pony]

Definitely a wild variety.

 

[nuggets]

they love frozen bloodworms and some beefhearts and a little brine shrimp,i have cones in there they get along great and always swim and hang out together

Beautiful. I tend to favour wild discus. These are no exception.

Green discus. You can tell by the dark band that goes around the outside of the fins, through the claudal peduncle, and back up through the eye.

Very beautiful indeed.
