Breeding Kribs in with Discus?

I have a pair of Kribs in with my four Discus......They look like they are about ready to breed.....i do not have another tank...... Will babies be ok in here?

No, the Discus are going to eat them all once they become free swimming. Plus, your Discus are going to be in trouble from the aggressive Kribs. They may not be aggressive now, but once they breed they will go after the Discus if they come near.

Your best bet is to get a tank divider and have the Kribs and fry on one side, the Discus on the other.

Thank You so much......I also have a question about one of my Discus.....all 4 of my discus are small , about 1.5-2 , my snake skin has internal parasites, and i treated for that......he appears to be ok now,.....his poop looks better, but he still hides in the corner with dark color......and when he's not dark his color is poor, you think he's ok, just needs some time to brighten up, or is there still something wrong with him
