Spotting on discus

Hey Peeple

Just wondering if anyone knows what causes spotting on Discus. Looks sort of like pepper (heck it might even be called peppering). Also is it permanent or does it come and go.

    peppering is pretty common, heavily peppered fish are less desirable than 'clean' fish. some fish will show more peppering when they are stressed but the really good quality ones dont have the ability to show that (peppering just doesnt exist on them). most pigeons do have a degree of peppering on them permantly

    Keeping pigeon blood discus with a dark background supposedly brings out the peppering (yup that's the correct word) more.
