Discus fish - living room at Xmas

Just tested my new 'HD Vado' camera and filmed the Discus Aquarium in our Living Room.....the lights are only around the fire at this time of Year! I will be moving at least 5 of the younger Discus to another Tank in the next day. The Congo Tetras are breeding and I have 2 other Mature pairs of Discus producing fry reguarly. A RAM, Rummy's and 4 Sterbai Corydoras are also in as Tankmates. They are generally peaceful but have the odd chase when I go near the Glass, as they think they are about to be fed!!

Must be a nice setup...no one's commentated on Eastenders playing in the background. Seriously, why didn't you just mute your TV?

This is the most beautiful private discus tank I have ever seen. O_o Wow. You should charge admission to your living room. How do you keep the sand from going anaerobic?

@jjgentle1821 I use Peat-pelletts within a pillow (pair of tights, with a knot in.; new, clean ones!!) + bogwood. this brings my Tapwater of 7.0, down to 6.5< overnight.

@jjgentle1821 just wondering what is the ph of your water,and how do you keep from fluctuating?
rossyt99
rossyt99 - 13 years ago
@jjgentle1821 Hi; No, I now use a 'HMA Filter; 'Heavy Metal Axe'......+ I have some SERA Ceramic noodles within my Fiter, which makes it clear. + regular water-changes helps.

jjgentle1821 - 13 years ago

@h2opolo131 It is just Golden sand from an Aquatics Shop; You can get it cheaper from 'Argos' in UK; basically it is just Kids Playsand. it is already cleaned, but I washed it before adding.......it looks good.

@calidago I don't use C02; Just put the light on for about 9 hours per day......I have 2 Tubes; a 'Power-Glo and a Aqua-Glo. (Discus need a high Temp, so choose Plants which will survive in warmer water.)

I have a 75 gallon hexagon and I'm dying to fill it with discus... Do you use CO2 or do the plants grow that way on their own? Your help is much appreciated :-)

Thankyou; I have moved a few out since then......the colours are brighter with the addition of White-worms's a food treat.

These ones a certainly curious; Wild Discus, or newly introduced Fish may be a different matter...more 'skittish'....but these are fine. They tended to go to the corner where the lights were a lot. (they are not there now. Xmas is over)

rossyt99 - 14 years ago
Thanks; Yes, I have 6 Aquariums; one a 5-footer which is homing 5 of these Discus now; + 2 other 4-footers and 2, 30''x18''x12''. The water is now ready for Discus in them all.......I may get a few more Sterbai Cories, but not others as my Temp. is 86F. I may get a few more Rummy's, but I vowed not to, after losing some a while ago. Congo's are now my Fav.Tetra! + Happy New Year to you and all other Youtube Subscribers!

5 stars, camera seems great :) Fish all look very happy and healthy :) Water crystal clear. You planning to upgrade as theirs lots of growing to be done with these beautiful fish :) 8-10ft would be nice :D. I say this because i'd love to see a big shoal of rummynose in there and a bigger shoal of cories of different mix :)) Glad you have another tank to move the smaller discus into aswell :) Happy New Year :)
