Discus Sex?

[Hungriee]

How do you determine the sex of a discus?

Yeesh...when I first saw the thread title I thought it said "Discuss sex." Now I'm slightly embarrassed to be in here. :P

By their fins. They say that the males fins have a slight point at the top and bottom of the fish and the females are more round.
as well as the dorsal (top) fin is pointed at at the tail end, wheras a females dorsal is ronded at the tail end..

Also they say ( They say alot) that if you were to continue the outline of the top and bottom fins, past the tail fin of the fish, the location of the intersecting lines will determine the sex of the fish. If the lines intersetd within the tail fin, it is female, and if they intersect behind the tail fin it is a male...
I'll see if I can find a diagram somewhere...

for the most part, its a guessing game..

You know their sex when you see them lay eggs and they get fertilized.
