Discus Fry

Wow! My discus have gone from emaciated (see 2D Discus) to the proud parents of ooodles of baby discus! They had been laying eggs for a little while and even hatching them out but they are in a community tank and I suspect the Bolivian rams where getting the fry. So I sold all the Bolivian Rams at the GSAS auction in mid April and sure enough the next batch of eggs hatched out and the fry survived. I took out the third discus so now that tank has the discus parents and babies, lots of plecos (too many actually), corries, and cardinal tetras. The fry are happily slurping up the slime on the parents and the parents are doing a great job protecting them from all.
