    any colour of discus can be paired, it's just a matter of what colour you want the offspring to be

    Yes the strain is called turquoise.
    Discus are not fussy, put a male and a female together and when they are ready, they will breed. It's just a matter of what the resultant fries will look like.

    Are there two females? It seems that the egg count is a bit too much. Hope I am wrong.

    lyh,
    eggs count varies from discus to discus, it's always possible to get 200-300 eggs from 1 spawn.
