A small number of Red Melon discus at home

After a few years of selection, i needed to inject some new blood…

So here is the evolution of my lineage for this year 2014. Fish from the photos that follow are 8/9 cm for the largest.

It will be time to separate this batch in two, so that the smaller individuals can evolve as it should.

I now can't wait to see them grow up hoping that they allow me to continue to evolve my lineage!

I say no more and share here taken shots i did few weeks and then a few months ago.

  3. Good afternoon, sir,

    I come from Indonesia, my name is ahmad, I was one of the farmers of the discus fish here, I wonder about the crossing discus fish right for you.

    My question: how to create a sort of types of gold red and gold diamonds is good and true and what type should I prepare for the wedding.

    thank you

    Hello Ahmad,

    The problem in discus genetic is the appelations we find on the market…
    Please can you tell me what phenotype you call « gold red » or « gold diamonds ». a picture will be better to understand what variety you are talking about.

    Are you talking about red melon, Red golden diamond, white red?

    Witch one are you talking about?

    Yann
