Is Discus Breeding Easy?

Is discus breeding easy? If so what are the requirements?

Getting them to spawn is not hard if you have a pair that is happy and healthy. Getting fry is another story.

It depends on many things.

As above, from what Ive reading, rearing the fry is hard. Feeding is meant to be the biggest problem, ive never tried it personally though.

From my research when I was thinking of getting some Discus, I also think part of it comes down to the actual fish you hae. Some seem to make better parents than others

 

[jameshughes1989]

Yeah, I believe it can take them a few times to get the hang of it.

keeping discus and successfuly breeding discus are 2 completely different prospects. breeding is a lot of hard work , even if you do get fry raising them is lots of work LOTS of freshly hatched brine shrimp LOTS of waterchanges LOTS of time and LOTS OF WORK not to mention expense.
