    Discus Diet Documented & Superb Video!

    I thought Discus actually shot out of the water and went right through cows tearing out their hearts. Crazy they eat detritus and bugs.

    Prazi pro is a great med for internal parasites. Salt will not help you in this instance.

    neep help fast.rescued discus

    First you need to use a wide spectrum antibiotic like Furan-2. If you raise your temps it will hinder parasites but bacteria will explode in growth with higher temps. Salt added will not hurt but generally will not help with parasites or bacteria once they are established. Epsom salts can...

    Discus

    Start a bare-bottom tank with 10 (2"-2.5") juvenile Discus. Do w/c every other day. In about 6months-1 year cull or sell the least attractive 4.

    feeding young discus while on holiday

    Feed them a bunch before you leave. Then do a big W/C. Dont bother with an auto feeder. Then come home, feed again and W/C. You can easily get away with not feeding for 2-3 days.

    Micro worms

    I will never feed my Discus live food. I think there is too much of a chance for disease.

    How can I fit discus into this tank?

    If the Discus are healthy adults and placed into the 135 with a group like 5 they should be fine. The temps for adult Discus should be a minimum of 82 your tank mates should be made accordingly. I dont see a problem with any of those tankmates for healthy Discus except I dont know their temp...

    Suspicious Discus Poo

    Yeah I have used it a number of times. It smells funny for amin or 2 and makes the surface a little foamy but not too hard on the fish. I have found water changes, salt, temp increases will not stop an internal parasite infection. It will definately help prevent it but not a preexisting case...

    Suspicious Discus Poo

    Try a dose of prazi pro and if you see more stringy white poo then follow the instructions for further doses. 1 dose will not harm your fish.

    Juvenile discus not growing well

    Just cause the poo is black does not mean a lack of parasites. I learned that first hand. If you are worried you could try a single dose of prazi pro. Your growth probs are most likely related to poor water and stress from where you got the fish.
