Discus Breeding for Beginners

In this beginner's Discus book, Jack Wattley touches on some of the important topics regarding Discus and the breeding of this highly sought after freshwater fish. The topics that Wattley covers:

Where the Discus originates
The different species of Discus
Discus compatible tank mates - those that go well and those to avoid
The proper water parameters (ph, hardness, temperature, etc.) for Discus
The proper filtration setups
The amount of water changes required
Breeding the Discus
Common diseases associated with Discus

Discus Breeding for Beginners has a ton of beautiful pictures of various Discus species and overall I would give this book 4 out of 5 stars. It was one of the first books that I read on Discus and it is still one of my favorites. I was reluctant to keep Discus due to their difficult reputation until reading this book. Check it out. 4 stars
