OK, my female discus spawned, but the male just watched! Is there a class I can send him to? Well, the good news is that he now seems more interested in the spawning site. I guess I'll have to wait and see.

It could take a few times for them to get it right...same with angels.

The female spawns about every 7 days, and then her and the male eat the eggs immediately. Stupid fish! I guess I'll put them in a tank by themselves and see if they do any better.

It took my discus male a few months longer than the female to stop eating the eggs... maybe they just mature slower. At any rate he figured it out at about the 12 month old mark. Good luck!
