I recently learned that artificially raising discus fry on egg yolk mixes, which I first attributed to Jack Wattley, actually was discovered in the late 1950's/early 1960's. Around the same time, some aquarists learned that the discus fry can be raised on baby brine shrimp, too. The risk with the egg yolk mixes is fouling the water, but if you are diligent and keep the containers clean (Wattley used old porcelain bowls), they grow fast. Wayne Leibel had an article in a recent TFH about contact feeding in cichlids; Discus aren't the only ones that do this.
