	Discus Breeding.
Darthannihl8or Enthusiast Posts: 206 Kudos: 140 Votes: 20 Registered: 27-Apr-2003	I had a pair of discus lay eggs in my community tank on 3 occasions. So I decided to give them there own tank to breed in. They are yet to lay in this tank and I was wondering how long it would take them to lay a new lot of eggs? It has only been a week but how long will I have to wait?
