After months of trying my fry have attached to the parents.

Read up on discus, after I get a few batches I will give club members some.

I am still working on getting the fry to attach on a second pair.

up date

The fry are doing well and there seems to be a lot more of them then I thought.

I plan on moving the second pair to a new tank over the weekend so I can give them more attention.

Mark, it's been a while since your last update on the discus fry. How are they doing?

Well, I spent a lot of time doing water changes. With each water change I would lose 4 or5 babies, I think I figured out what was killing them. I would add a ph buffer with every change. I then took water that was sitting for 3 days and I have not lost one. The badthing is I am down to about 7. My breeding pair continues ro put nout eggs and when I get back from vacation I will try to hatch out another batch of fry.
