    Yes.... they only do that though if something is done wrong and or they get sick.... A feeding Discus is a HAPPY Discus :)

    Once they stop eating there is a low chance of getting them to eat... I have tried EVERYTHING to get them to start back with failure EVERY time :confused:

    It seems really difficult :|
    Once I've got more experience (loads more) I want to try discus ones. The're so pretty.

    I had some Angels in this tank... no more... Angels mess up the natural behavior of Discus.... Plus Discus is more of my thing than Angels so they get the big tank
