I have a variety of different discus (natural and bred) and one of them was basically a cheap cast off from someone's pigeon blood program. He has a pretty extensive amount of peppering now. And as much as I enjoy the "proper" color morphs that I own, I actually really like the way my peppered mutt of a discus looks:

Correct me if i'm wrong but aren't breeders introducing albino bloodline to the pigeon based fish to have a cleaner fish?

I like the peppering too, my orange/red one has it on the fin/tail edges and I was so happy that it came it because it looks amazing on him/her?

where is one of my pigeon bloods, it just depends on the quaility and what you want. you trying to breed, or just want to enjoy them as some nice pet fish?
