Hello Discus fanatics,
I have officially jumped back into the hobby after a 2 year hiatus and received my pair of Leopards this morning from James (WVDiscus) [These fish are originally from Jeffrey Yang]

I am asking you all for your support and subscribe to my new hobbyist Discus fish blog where I will have pictures and videos of their breeding progress and growing out the fry; as well as sharing a few tips! Subscribing means to simply submit your email (on the right side), and I will send you an email every time I update with a new article. No spam ever, promise. My blog is at: www.DiscusFishy.com

There are already a few articles on there, but you may be interested about their arrival this morning: http://www.discusfishy.com/leopards-...delay-shipping

I'll also be updating this thread with any updates I have..
Would love to hear your comments on my blog, I spent about 2 days creating and designing it!

Thank you all!
James F.

They laid over the weekend! About 150-160 eggs. To get some more info and video of them, check out the post I made on my hobbyist blog at: DiscusFishy.com

All eggs weren't fertilized. =( So they ate them all after they turned white.

Seems I misjudged when they laid, must of be within 24 hours when I discovered them. Thought maybe it had been a few days and the dark ones were still good.

Anyways, I will let them at it again, if same result, I'll prob have to tamper with my water hardness. I saw some slight flashing, one gill, one fin behavior a few times a day, so I decided to run a 10 day (every other day w/c and dose) Quick Cure treatment. Also, the male's eyes seem to pop out alittle more than my liking and I suspect slight pop eye, after the Quick Cure, if it's still present, I might run a quick anti-biotic treatment as well.
