This is the first time I've seen a discus behave like this. My SE would go in front of my WB, turns really dark, face almost upward and let the WB nibble on it's belly or maybe it's anus or it's sex organ. Although it's not protruding. Is this normal? They've been doing it a few times now. When I approach the tank, the SE will go back to it's normal color and is begging to be fed.

Not really, its normal for discus to display personable behavior or aggression. They have attitude! LOL

Good to know :) I was a little concern because the SE turned really dark. Now they are back to their normal selves. Lol

Thanks
