With this breeding pair the male is the instigator and eats the eggs or new fry. I will pull him from the tank next time around.
My question though is I keep the breeding water at @ 80 TDS and plan to move the male to my discus show tank of @ 250 +TDS. Will this abrupt change affect the male?...

by Tommy75hello! while waiting for a confirmed breeding pair to do their magic, should I be doing any routine treatments or meds just as a preventative (other than the daily wc)? I don’t see any obvious issues, but just wondering if there’s anything people usually do as good practice.
