How would this work for an 100 gallon?

5 Discus
10 Congo Tetra
4 Red Head Eartheater

Could I add more?

j03yYunG Aquariums - 8 years ago

Not sure, never kpet Congos with Discus before.

lumpy1space2princess - 8 years ago

+j03yYunG Aquariums Will the Congos annoy the Discus?

j03yYunG Aquariums - 8 years ago

+lumpy1space2princess Yup you can.

lumpy1space2princess - 8 years ago

+j03yYunG Aquariums Can I add plants?

j03yYunG Aquariums - 8 years ago

+lumpy1space2princess That's a good stock for a 100 gal. You can maybe add a few more depending on your filter.

Too be honest some discus looks sick.The diamonds are ok but the others are like really sick.

Trevor Anthony - 8 years ago

Skinny discus bud. Not good.

j03yYunG Aquariums - 8 years ago

+Linkin Knoxville Yup its a known issue for the Red Discus. He already went through months of QT/treatment and he's been this way for over 5 months now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3LO71_5Ww4

Codey Sobrino - 8 years ago

Ok will do thanks so much

j03yYunG Aquariums - 8 years ago

+Codey Sobrino Here's the April shipment. http://forum.simplydiscus.com/showthread.php?123918-PREVIEW-49-strains-APR-2016-Forrest-shipment-(Price-list-included)

Codey Sobrino - 8 years ago

Thanks so much I will try that.. I live in Florida and the mom and pop shops are the only shops that carry discus.. But I can tell they are cross bread and I'm looking for pure bread any advice on that

j03yYunG Aquariums - 8 years ago

+Codey Sobrino I highly recommend you check out Kenny's Discus. Great Discus and prices will be much cheaper than your LFS including shipping if you buy quite a few.

Codey Sobrino - 8 years ago

I have 2 discus in my 125 I tried adding a new discus but he got bullied by the other two so I had to take him out any advice?

j03yYunG Aquariums - 8 years ago

+Codey Sobrino Yeah its pecking order. This will current when you introduce new fish to any tank. I also recommend you get a group of 6-7 Discus to reduce the bullying.

NYCity Cichlids - 8 years ago

Awesome video.

Aquacanvas - 8 years ago

love the blue discus man! i have a soft spot for blue ones :) keep up the good work.

Aquacanvas - 8 years ago

+j03yYunG Aquariums np! your videos stood out, had to check them out!!

j03yYunG Aquariums - 8 years ago

+Inkevnito Thanks for stopping by.

Carlos David - 8 years ago

Beautiful video!
I'm thinking of having an Discus fish tank only
what do you recommend me ?

j03yYunG Aquariums - 8 years ago

A 70 gal should be able to house 6-7 adult Discus. Since its a new tank, you can buy half of them first to allow the tank to build up in beneficial bacteria, then get the other half in 3-4 weeks.

Carlos David - 8 years ago

+j03yYunG Aquariums I'm thinking about buying a tank of 70 gallons
I wonder how much of Discus is convenient to begin
Thank you!.

j03yYunG Aquariums - 8 years ago

+Carlos David Tank size or where to get them ?

+Teng Xue Forums and people who like to keep rare plants

Bradford Aquatics - 8 years ago

dope sack - 8 years ago

2:49 your discus look sick dose not look like it eat super thin

j03yYunG Aquariums - 8 years ago

+dope sack It went through a 3 month deworm/internal parasite treatment last year in a QT. He pretty much look the same going in / out of that treatment. He's been eating fine, just looks really bad.

Austin Burton - 8 years ago

Awesome looking aquarium!

Eyecandy! Discus are so pretty.

FortWayne Fishtanks - 8 years ago

Top notch dude

MASS Aquariums - 8 years ago

Discus looking good. You SAE's are huge too. Do they even eat algae anymore. Lol. I like that Ludwigia White. Nice plant

j03yYunG Aquariums - 8 years ago

+MASS Aquariums They SAE destroy algae, that's why there's nothing in the tank.

Nikki G - 8 years ago

They too skinny.

Nikki G - 8 years ago

Your discus looks so bad. They definitely have worms.

j03yYunG Aquariums - 8 years ago

+Nikki G That red Discus went through a 3 month deworm/internal parasite treatment last year in a QT. He pretty much look the same going in / out of that treatment. He does look really bad, but I'm not going to kill him if he's eating and pooping normally, so he'll continue doing his thing in the tank.

Dan Hiteshew - 8 years ago

It's growing in nicely!

j03yYunG Aquariums - 8 years ago

+Dan Hiteshew Thanks Dan.

DMAN D - 8 years ago

You should get some Ambulia for that tank,I think it will mix in really well!

j03yYunG Aquariums - 8 years ago

+DMAN D I tried some a while back. Didn't really like them as much. :/

Ruben - 8 years ago

Tank and fish look great man. It looks like you can cut the Ludwigia White into a few stems and put it where theres more light. propergate the hell out of it man $15. a stem I would.

j03yYunG Aquariums - 8 years ago

+Ruben Yup, I've noticed that too. They curly alot when they float. I do the same thing when I'm waiting to ship out the pre-cut stems.

Ruben - 8 years ago

+j03yYunG Aquariums I've notice that also with the plants floating. Have you figured a way for the plants floating to stop them from curling. If I'm shipping a plant or two I tie them to a rock and let them float near the surface so they don't curl up. A lot of carbon near the surface and the plants love it.

j03yYunG Aquariums - 8 years ago

+Ruben Hey Ruben, I did last year. I put the sick one in a QT tank and treated him for worm/internal parasite for 3 months. Doing 50% daily water change with high temps. The way you see him now was the same when he went in for treatment. Even at the treatment phase, there was no sign of white poop. He was eating fine the whole time so that's why I put him back in the main tank to be with his buddies.
When I float the plants, they grow much faster because its close to the light / surface for gas exchange.

Ruben - 8 years ago

+j03yYunG Aquariums I like how thick the stem is on those Pogo Kimberley. When you move the plants that you have floating what a difference in the plant's. I notice how shinny that fish is (Why) Are thee other fish bothering him and don't let him eat. Have you try putting him in a tank by himself. I like that you keeping him. Thanks Joey.

j03yYunG Aquariums - 8 years ago

+Ruben Haha, I'm in no rush. What I want to do is grow out the submerge part a bit more before trimming and re-planting it. Those Pogo Kimberley I have in the tank were $12/stem when I got them.. and look at how many grew since than. :)
