Same here, thats why im buying the 2nd one:)
 
So sad:(

Just woke up, and found 2 of the 4 wild/turquoise discus dead, 1 was floating, and the other was lying on the substrate:(

I just want to remove the other discus, I only havev 3(1 baby in the 20G, and 2 in the 72G):(
i am seriously thinking about humanely euthanizing the other 2 discus.

I don't know what happened, they were eating from my hands yesterday night, I did a 50% WC 2 days ago, so what could be the problem? :(

theyre either stressed from all the activity of your other fish, or its too cold. wats the temp?

the temp. is perfect at 84F, it goes up to 86F sometimes bc it gets like 90F here in SJ, CA.
 
Very nice!
:thm:

thanks:)

They are discus and discus can be fragile. Sorry for the loss.

I would do a parameter check.

Also weren't the discus suppose to be sold already?
yeah, I know:(

they were eating out of my hands yesterday, and then bam this morning.

i can't find th eother 2, they are probably stressed as they have no buds.

the discus were sold, but the buyer is coming either today or tomorrow, I am going to cancel this sale:(

I'll do the parm. check after I do the rescape, but I'll do it before a WC.
 
parms

ammonia-0.0ppn
nitrate-5ppm
nitrite-0.0ppm
pH-7.4

it seems fine to me, and if this helps

the dead discus were super white, and had cottony crap over their heads?

the other 2 are perfectly healthy, nothing on them, full colors. ;)
will the other 2 die of stress bc of lack of companaions?
 
I always get the two confused, but shouldn't you have less nitrates and a little Nitrite? Or is my dyslexia getting the best of me again?

Anyhow, I can't help with the discuss, sometimes fish die for reasons we can't figure out. Could have been stress, maybe a disease or parasite, possibly the stunting. If you're canceling the sale then how do you plan to get rid of the discuss?
