When I first saw White Butterfly discus in the late 90s, I knew they were my Holy Grail discus. There have been many types of white pigeon discus over the years but it's hard to find the ones that turn mostly solid white but keep the blue sheen in the fins and the orange pigeon markings on the face.
I've finally gotten a group from Kenny's Discus that show some real promise. At 3 - 4" they are already turning white, something that my last few batches didn't do until about 5". You can see that it starts in the face and works its way back to the tail of the fish. These guys should look incredible when they're adults.
I do love wild-type discus but every now and then a pigeon variety will catch my eye and scream out to me -- these have been screaming out to me for a decade.![Big Grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
