Kiran bobby - 6 years ago

Can you tell me what should be the water parameters for discus and TDS level ...
right now I’m using RO water and adding seachem replenish and discuss buffer for ph but my TDS is shooting to 350ppm

jericjem22 - 6 years ago

I have a breeding pair,6 inches blue pigeon male and a 5 inches red Turquoise female that have been spawning continuously every 5 to 8 days for about a month and a half now.What happened was the eggs sometimes hatch and a couple of days fry disappear or eggs few times didn't hatch and they turned white and ended up at the bottom of the bare tank base.I can only assume that my tank conditions are in top maintenance level with partial water change every other day( 2 times a week) and my discus appear in excellent shape and active.Still I am trying to gather some great ideas on how to manage a successful batch of breeds.Please to hear from anyone with suggestiions.

Jody Clark - 7 years ago

Did you add the wire cage after they laid eggs or was it on there the whole time?

Derek Abel Van Meter - 8 years ago

Is that galvinized hardware cloth covering the cone? I guess there's not an issue with the zink leeching into the water?

Fishy Hobby - 8 years ago

Very nice informative video.

Charles norris - 8 years ago

how much stress coat are you adding per water change? and would this help the parents fry?

Grant Taylor - 8 years ago

Do you know how I can get those breeding cones and screens?

AquaPol - 8 years ago

+Grant Taylor the cones you can buy off ebay they are made by company in europe JBL discus cones, the screen is made of a "chicken mesh screen" you can buy those at Homedepot, you just have to cut it to size you want and then what I do, I just close it up with some zip ties.

+Ratul Mukherjee ive just had a spawn from a blue diamon and a marlboro red. Was theyr 1st spawn so not very sucessful. Maybe i was lucky. My breeding knowlge is 0

Fish Man - 8 years ago

Yes they can!! :)

Reefer Status - 9 years ago

Ginny yes use ro/di water and adjust the ph to where you want it in this case 6.5 is a good start for discus

Ginny Sanderson - 9 years ago

Hello

I am not able to keep the PH in my breeding tank stable at 6.5. It will change within 24 hours.All the eggs will be white in no time!Any help greatly appreciated.SHould i use RO water?

Elijah Dail - 8 years ago

Discus need soft and acidic water. If you are using only tap water and your ph and hardness is not in your desired area, you can change temporarily. I would switch to RO.

mark beep - 9 years ago

My friend has a pair of red turquois in a 55 gallon tank, and it is not that much work to raise discus. Yeah he does more partial water changes, He feeds them freshly hatched brine shrimp for two weeks, but otherwise the small fish start eating the discus mix that my friend prepares by himself after just a couple of weeks. Hans keeps them in 20 gallon tanks, and yes that will create a lot more work due to quickly changing water quality.

Oscar Suarez - 9 years ago

Il H0MICIDE lI - 9 years ago

Uhm you have discus but dont know anything About them ?

izi - 10 years ago

can someone tell me the size of those breeding tanks? they seem small!

Jarred Gray - 10 years ago

g with you

saltyventures - 10 years ago

So since it wasn't covered in the video.. Does anyone kno what exact temperature the water should be at for breeding? Does anyone know roughly the exact water perameters of Hans fish tanks?

vorman13 - 6 years ago

30 Celsius

Steven Y - 10 years ago

so let me get this straight..these are not cycled tanks, you keep water parameters in check through water changes only. Correct?

Speakerofthehouse2 - 10 years ago

What kind of discus are these in this video?

Hunter Grad - 10 years ago

Marlboro red discus

DW_Aquatics - 10 years ago

I dont suppose you know the pH of Hans water do you mate?

Squirles G - 10 years ago

Discus are flexible 5.8 to 6.5 would be okay even a neutral 7.0 your main focus should be having clean water, if ph is your concern cure some driftwood and get an r.o. unit

sokngor - 10 years ago

now at this point do you still feed them

Dave Brittain - 10 years ago

Joseph Smith - 10 years ago
