November 9, 200718 yr comment_193819 strange, im used to animals that just gulp and comsume food like a maniac. discuss is something a lil different, it seems that when they eat they eat and spit some out every time, eventuually you see the belly swell abit but hey dont seem to take large chunks and eat it like other fish. very slow eaters Report
November 9, 200718 yr comment_193820 Yep, that's why they struggle to get enough to eat when they are with more aggressive fish like Angels. Report
November 9, 200718 yr Author comment_193821 yeah, funny though they look so awekward and stupid im used to fisht hat really fight for their food these guys kinda just cruise around very slowly they are just starting to adjust to the tank, not yet swimming around hope they do do discus usually swim around and explore more of the tank and put on a show for people of nice swimming? or do they usually hide?

November 9, 200718 yr comment_193822 Providing they are healthy and you have plenty of plants and some dither fish to make them feel secure, they will put themselves on display. Discus are pigs once they have settled in, and will normally come to the surface begging for food when they see you. Cheers, Matt Report
November 9, 200718 yr comment_193886 Have to agree with matt there. Mine basically jump out the water when its feeding time. Anyone would think they are malawi cichlids ahahahahaha Report
November 9, 200718 yr comment_193898 Mine used to be real gutsy feeders when they were younger but i have noticed they definatly take their time now that they are adults. Theres no show like a discus trying to impress its partner, hope you get to see that soon :lol: Report
