Discus fish unboxing - adding 15 new fish to my custom aquarium, and finally getting the panels fitted to complete my custom discus display tank. I talk a little about how I selected my Discus and the acclimatisation process, and how I acclimatise new discus fish with the 'drop and plop' method. **Stuff I use** Evolution Aqua pure aquarium balls - http://amzn.to/2vPCcDB Temperature Gun - http://amzn.to/2xZp3cT Buy the lights I'm using - http://amzn.to/2xHTp3V Check out the Merch!: https://shop.spreadshirt.co.uk/DiscusNewbie/ Support me on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/discusnewbie Follow me on Twitter: https://twitter.com/DiscusNewbie Tank by: Fit Filtration - fitfiltration.co.uk ACS - aquariumcabinetsolutions.com **Breeders** Chens Discus - chensdiscus.co.uk Corban Discus - corbandiscus.co.uk Devotedly Discus - devotedly-discus.co.uk Discus for the Discerning - discusforthediscerning.com Forgot to mention in the video - but also; Northants Discus - northantsdiscus.com Music: https://www.bensound.com/royalty-free-music

what size is your tank and how many tetras do you have in it? Very tastefully done.

Those discus... wish they were here. Nice video.

Thanks!

From Scotland mate? If so would be interested in any recommendations suppliers around here!

Aquarium Adventures - 6 years ago

I'm from Glasgow - but live in Sheffield now. I'd suggest RT Discus (Coatbridge) but any of the main suppliers here will ship fish if you don't like the look of theirs!

Ive keep discus for a little over a year now, but I never was clear on the “plop and drop” method of acclimating. I know about ammonia issues being a problem once the bag is opened, but what about ph differences from the bag water to your tank? If they are both different can that shock the fish too?

Aquarium Adventures - 6 years ago

+PBK it can, but PH shock is the lesser of two evils. Ammonia will kill a fish quicker.
