I have a Discus(Melon) I'm getting pretty concerned about. It is in a 125 gal tank with 7 other Discus. Lately(about a week now) it just does not seem to be eating. I feed flakes,Tetra Color Bits,Brine Shrimp & Beefheart. Nothing seems to entice it lately. I even tried adding garlic to some Beefheart today,nothing. All it's tankmates are eating fine.
3 of these fish I have had for about 8-9 months,the other 5 for about 3 months. Awhile back I lost a White Diamond for no apparent reason.
My parameters are as follows:
Temp = 83 degrees
Ammonia = 0
Nitrite = 0
NitrAte = 10
He is even starting to look a little skinny,again worrying me.
I have never treated any of my Discus for Parasites/worming etc.
Should I do so just as a normal maintenence? If so,what should I use ?
