For that to happen you will need to heavily enhance it. And when it turns red, it doesnt look naturally as only synthetic enhancers is strong enough to do that. On the other hand, we are afraid of side effects like liver failure.

Do pardon my ignorance on discus...

As i've kept Aro n FH for years but i wont say im very experienced...

Its more like a gene thing when it comes to red...eg red aro...to achieve a full red mask aro would be a gene problem...no matter what enhancers we feed, those without the gene just wont cover full face...no matter the age..

for FH also base on its gene strongly when it comes to full body red or full head red....that is if without the gene no matter what enhancers we feed also useless...

What i'm saying is that in my limited knowledge on discus...if we feed enhancers to red discus...the forehead and cheek will be as EVENLY red as the body like what i've posted...like a one tone colour? and not just pink pigmentation?

and not because of its gene? thats why its forehead and face its evenly red as the rest of the body with original red colour?

Because Aro or FH if fed with so call strong synthetic enhancers....those parts originally without red colour will only appear very fake pink pigmentation....but not evenly red as other original parts...

So now if i take a natural red melon with white/beige colour without slightest red colour forehead and i feed it with synthetic enhancers...the whole part will be as EVENLY red as the body?

am i right?

Sorry for my 1001 Qs...im a very curious noob when it comes to discus

Just wanna learn more from this field shifus and no offence meant if i did any...my apologies

Cheers

Basically it's the same as FH when there is red pigmentation, some enhancers will make it even redder just like what you have experienced.
