I felt overwhelmed when I first got my discus because the water changes and especially the feeding. Stick to one type of food at first it can take up to two weeks for them to actively look for food. Once you find them eating one type of food introduce a second if you are varying their diets and...

That's after a water change and then caught some individual shots of 3 of them.

Oh no, but atleast you didn't lose any? From my original 8 discus i only ever lost one. Some of them are pretty big sized but a few of the more timid ones didn't grow at the same rate.

Nice! Shows how well you're keeping them that they are spawning.

I use an aqueon forge 30x12 i have a 20 gallon long and my daughter's 5 gallon pea puffer tank on the bottom. It could be for either a 20 or 29 on the top and the bottom can hold up to a 15 gallon aquarium.

I set up a fluval 207 cannister with glass tubes modifying the vinyl tubs to fit the glass wear was a pain and i can never really clean the intake that great. The intake goes about half way but never had any water quality issues. If you're worried about flow use the poppy shape glass tub it...

Loving your Aquariums they look great

Just pictures after pruning the swords and water change.

Been mia for a while, been so busy back at work but what a great write up you taught me alot on keeping discus and it's awesome to see you share that with others.

I had an issue with the algae i attributed to over feeding and light intensity i cut back the feeding and added a siamese algae eater and it greatly reduced my algae . This was in a 75 gallon with a fluval plant 3.0.

This is how I'm currently running it I'm still tweaking the levels but it's cut my algae. I'm in the process of setting up my other 3 tanks with aquaskys to keep them synchronized and they're small shallow tanks.

I love it I'm running one it's a pretty strong light. I ran it too high of a spectrum for too many hours and had an algae breakout, once I turned it down the algae subsided and the plants are doing great.

Yes same with glofish skirt tetra.

Pulled out some of the plants opening up more space.

After getting the fluval plant 3.0 I've moved towards only having fluval app run lights i have a 18 watt one I love the app and synchronizing the lights through the app. I need 3 more even though they're the budget version they're still a bit pricey for more than one aquarium so I'm adding them...

I don't mind the green algae I leave it on the side wall. The fish seem to graze in it when the lights go into siesta mode.

In the process of getting 3 aquasky so my fish tanks are synchronized.

They can live in that temperature just understand warming them up is going to speed up their metabolism which will make them hungrier often and also basically shorten their lifespan because of this.

Beautiful setup

Unfortunately with earthquake it's a risk reward thing even with it bolted to a wall if the earthquake is big enough it's going to launch the aquarium. But yes securing is still better than nothing and I wouldn't recommend anyone in earthquake prone areas to stack any hire than 2.
