Title: This is why Discus are cool
Post by: LizStreithorst on September 26, 2013, 07:27:06 PM
It's all about how the parents and the babies interact.  There is nothing like watching them care for their babies.  The parents work in shifts.  The fry will be eating from the sides of one while the other takes a break.  When the one carrying the kids has had enough, it signals to it's mate in a way I can't quite figure out,  gives a shake and all the fry fly to the sides of the other parent.

I hope you don't have to be a member to see pics here.  If you do, tell me and I will have it fixed so you don't.  This pic tells the story:  http://newdaah.com/index.php?topic=12163.new#new
