(The red likely colour enhanced with a different colour enhancer)Red discus has always been a favourite of many hobbyist. Recently, the full reds have become a sight to behold. Also, they have been giving the LSS a run for their money in recent competitions, obviously led by my good friend Ricky Lim(Multiple Grandchampion/Malaysia). His reds are in a different league!
I too took a plunge into breeding reds, late last year. Two pcs were a gift from a friend while another was bought from a local breeder. The following are some pictures of them.
The above pictures were taken when they were about 4 inches. When I took over the reds they were full red but because I don't really colour feed my discus, the redness ceased alot. Nevertheless, I was not worried as I knew the pedigree of the reds I had.
The female on the right of the picture was of a different linage which I chanced upon. Within weeks, I paired them up and soon they produced a batch. From the pictures, you can see that the red colour has changed yet again because tetra bits were included in their diet.
