| Re: sexing discus Aa, nick? Im getting a page not found. Does that mean it cant be done?  ley*  ey* Actually, what helped me was I let me discus pair up and then when they are laying eggs, you can definitly sex your discus by who is laying the eggs and who is fertilizng them. |

| Re: sexing discus Not exactly true. You can sex them by having the eggs hatch. Simply having a fish lay eggs only determines the sex of the female. The other fish may be a male, he may be fertilizing them or he may be a she just tagging along for the ride. Dave |

| Re: sexing discus Do discus change shape over time? 3 of my 5 discus don't fit into either of those suggested shapes. They are juveniles, and their dorsal and anal fins have a much deepr curve, without the flat area and whatnot. I can't even apply the line that points to the tail, because the arc of the fins does not flatten out - pure oval curve.
