Gonna try the peroxide dip next time. My pair's still new to this, so maybe they'll learn. Tank's got a bunch of Anubias and a slow-flow powerhead. Water changes are 30% weekly.

Higher heat can help, but watch the oxygen levels. I'd only go that high with an air stone running. My Discus breed at 85°F with a sponge filter bubbling nonstop.
