“Discus Breeding Mistakes: Why Patience Wins Every Time”

Today I’m showing you a real‑world discus breeding scenario that almost nobody talks about honestly: small spawns, bonded pairs, and why discus often eat their fry. This pair has about 20 babies on their sides right now, and at the same time they’ve laid 200 fresh eggs on the cone. This situation has happened to me around ten times over the years, and about 90% of the time it ends the same way. In this video, I walk you through exactly what’s happening, why it happens, and what you should do if you’re trying to breed discus successfully. You’ll see the parents feeding the fry from their slime coat, the male fanning the eggs, and the female carrying most of the babies. You’ll also hear why patience is the most important skill in discus breeding — not intervention. Most new breeders make the same mistake: They start covering eggs, pulling fry, moving cones, or trying to “save” the babies. But every time you interfere, your success rate drops dramatically. After 30 years of keeping discus, here’s what I’ve learned: Let the parents figure it out naturally Don’t force pairs — bonded pairs always outperform forced pairs Healthy parents matter more than saving fry Small spawns are usually culled by the parents for energy Water quality + high‑protein food = your only real job Failure teaches the pair how to succeed next time You’ll also hear why pH below 5.5 prevents fertilization, why fry need the slime coat for the first week!
