Discus Fish care Whoever wants to breed exotic fish needs special information on Discus Fish care, since discus fish are generally considered very sensitive creatures. A large part of Discus Fish care should focus on creating the most proper living environment in a well proportionate water tank. Discus fish love deep water, so make sure the aquarium you are going to use is proper for the discus group you want to colonize. In general terms Discus Fish care presents no out of common issues; all the breeder needs is to preserve the correct water parameters necessary for healthy living conditions. Otherwise, things should go smoothly. For instance an important element in Discus Fish care is the weekly water change; however, since the discus doesn’t like changes, only 25% of the tank volume should be freshened. Moreover, for special Discus Fish care tries to use a filter that eliminates the heavy metals and the chlorine without altering the water pH. Keep in mind that a larger water

Facts about discus health The most popular concerns about discus fish are those related to their health since they are know for being very sensitive to environmental conditions. It is essential for discus health that you recreate the living conditions they are used to in the wild: soft, slightly acidic clean water. Of course breeders do everything in their power to protect discus health given the fact that they also require special temperature and pH. Therefore if you plan on buying discus fish, you should start preparing their tank a month in advance to make sure you ensure discus health. There are many problems associated with discus health, but I will mainly refer to the environmental ones, which seem to be the most common. For instance, the iodine deficiency may appear due to pollutants in water or improper feeding. Then, another problem related to discus health is the lack of vitamins in the food, which on the long term may create low immune system and deficient wound healin

Discus fish disease risks Native from the Amazon River, yet successfully bred all over the world in aquariums, discus fish are not too fragile or sensitive creatures. However, all breeders should be aware of the risks of discus fish disease, as they are often exposed to various health problems because of improper care conditions. Saying that breeders are most often the ones responsible for the discus fish diseases doesn’t mean we’re pointing the finger, this is the truth. Improper care, poor or inadequate living conditions, co-inhabitance with other breeds are usually responsible for the various discus fish diseases. The most common discus fish diseases are the ones common to fresh water fish in general. For instance the ammonia poisoning is a discus fish disease that appears because of improper nitrogen cycle in your aquarium. Don’t add tropical fish in the water until the ammonia has been eliminated in the water, and maybe the filters don’t function properly. In order to avoid

Breeding discus fish It is not uncommon that exotic fish owners find breeding discus fish a little bit difficult to get baby discus. The hardest part about breeding discus fish is finding the right mates, this issue rises from the fact discus like to choose their partners alone, and not anyone suits their “taste”. Under such circumstances, you’ve got two solutions for breeding discus fish: you can either buy a couple or raise them together in a group and hope they will make couples. The first variant is not the happiest, since a discus fish couple can be as expensive as a few hundred dollars, which is a lot. Therefore, the most advantageous option you’ve got is to start breeding discus fish by creating a discus group of at least six members and keep the fingers crossed that you get at least one couple. How do you recognize mates? Well, breeding discus fish is not that difficult from now on if you follow some basic rules. First of all, the “new-weds” will delimitate a perimeter in

Keeping discus fish The last decades have seen more materials written about keeping discus fish than about any other fish species. Anyone who thinks about keeping discus fish in the aquarium should get well informed before actually purchasing them. They are considered royal fish native from the calm and warm Amazon waters that charm through their behavior. Keeping discus fish requires some background knowledge about what to expect from them and what to offer to make such pets happy. Discus fish are considered creatures of changing behavior that also manifest personality. When keeping discus fish you’ll notice that they are calm and shy in general, but when they make couples they often can become aggressive to their own kin and others due to breeding territory protection. Keeping discus fish will bring lots of both challenges and rewards. First of all, within a group it is often common that the weakest discus be severely bullied, a treatment that can sometimes result in death. T

Discus aquarium Creating the proper environment for discus fish involves a certain amount of work and documentation for achieving the best living conditions exotic fish needs. The first question you need to answer about your discus aquarium refers to the tank size. This very much depends on the room you’ve got at home and your financial availability. The discus aquarium should include a deep tank as these fish feel better in lots of water, not to mention that the more the water, the more stable the conditions. Hence, the discus aquarium should be at least 120 cm x 40 cm x 50 cm. The position of the discus aquarium is very important precisely since the discus are very shy fish when they distrust the surroundings. Make sure the discus aquarium is far from any noise or direct heat and light sources. Heat in excess causes plant overgrowth, while also reducing the level of oxygen. The discus aquarium should also be positioned somewhere high as these fish are disturbed by movement, a

The problems appear due to the failure cases that many owners face because they don’t know how to preserve their discus fish health. The coordinates for perfect discus fish health are very simple and easy to follow: keep them clean, well-fed and loved and everything should work great.

The results of an unfortunate co-inhabitance may have severe effects on discus fish health as well as on that of the rest of your aquatic pets. Discus fish health is just fine if you place them with fish smaller than themselves, on condition that these are not catfish with sucker mouths. This species is dangerous for the discus fish health as they attach to their scales producing severe tissue injuries. Some of the environmental discus fish health problems are sometimes solved
