View Full Version : Discus help ASAP!!!
My blue diamond cant hold its balance. Its struggling to stay upright and i just found it stuck on the inlet of my overflow. My tank has been running for several months with no problems with parameters. Any idea to whats causing this?

Is his stomach bloated? If so, treat with 1tbsp epsoms salt/5g. Also, try raising the temperature to 88F.
Is he still alert?

It did seem like his stomach was bloated but it got back to normal about 4 hrs later. :D

Did you find out the problem?
Great to hear he's all better :D
I think it could have been the temp. My Generic 500w broke a few weeks ago and i just got a 300w two Sundays ago. I transfered my 150w from my 55 gal and i cant get the temp back up to 86 deg. They cant got over 80 deg. even though they're directly placed in the tank and not in the sump to save energy. Thats why im getting another 350w Pro-heat II since that 500w heater didnt last even 3 months so i can put my 150w back in my 55gal.
