    Here are some pics of my discus (4 of my 5) the 5th one is impossible to get a picture of as it has claimed the territory just behind my driftwood in the tank and only comes out to eat..... it must be camera shy.

    the top and bottom fins dont come out to a streaming point they are kind of roundish which is the way i was told from Discus Hans.
    Another way is to extend the top fin and bottom fin through the tail fin if it would cross thru the tail female if they would cross past the tail male.
    Hey Lemon if ya would like we could meet somewhere and take a look i am no expert but i feel i got more then just a general knowledge of Discus plus i got a bunch of contact of people who breed and used to sell Discus.
    Just let me know like tomarrow i think ill play hookie from work cause well i got the time and i can lol.
