Breeding My Discus

Nice eggs!
I love how many synonyms you have for fertilization.

Trying not to be crude....this is a family show after all!

Haha. Ya.
You must have an amazing girl friend for tolerating all of this. Most wouldn't. xD
 
Before she knew me the only interest she had in fish was if they were served on a plate...........now I even have her doing water changes for me

you know... i believe im more interested in the way you describe your progress rather than the actual progress itself! too funny :)

hope you get paid off this time!
 
What are you gonna do with the fry when they finally breed? Sell them/give them to your friend the breeder?

Not counting my chickens just yet, but 'if' I have a good number I will select a couple of the best to keep for myself, and the rest sold or swapped for other fish. My friend at the fish farm wants them

That's cool.
 
12 hours in now and Mum has been on constant egg watch. Dad, is kicking back on the sofa and snacking on Tetra Bits. He is like, "my work is done here"

Anyway, everything looks good for now. I am doing smaller, but more frequent water changes, because I don't want to drop the water level below the egg line. I should be able to see if the eggs are fertilized in about 12 hours from now, and if so would expect them to start hatching in about 36-48 hours time. I can only see 2 bad eggs out of them all just now, so that's a very good sign
