[dave_oddballs]

does anyone know what type of discus this is?
Its in my tank at the moment because my girlfriend has a group of them but this one is a murderer of a very nice blue diamond discus!
It needs to go because it wont do well in my tank, i just want to know what type it is.
Thanks

How big is the discus? They were probably fighting over a partner or sometimes i have heard of the female buffing into the male and killing it that way. No reason why.

Could also be due to just dominance and a group not big enough to spread aggression healthily.

It's one of the pidgeon blood strains. No doubt Discuslova will enlighten us as to exactly which one he has as his display pic

Some sort of calico mongrel discus.. There are so many bizarre crosses most of which dont have official names. Not that any of the names are official, but many are universally accepted.
