How To Clean A Planted Fish Tank || Step-By-Step

Cleaning & Maintain A Planted Discus Tank | No Algae | Fish Care a simple guide Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/md_fishtanks Hi everyone. This video is about how i maintain my planted Discus tank. I get a lot of questions on how i keep it algae free. The key to this is keeping the plants healthy. Healthy plants use nutrients efficiently. This means there should be minimal free nutrients for any potential algae to use for food. Also, i don't overfeed my fish. I make sure that the fish eat everything i give them so that no excess food is just sitting on the base of the tank. I only clean my filters in this tank every 6 months so there was no need to do that in this video as i cleaned them 4 months ago. Music: Readers!

I think whats more important is giving them clean water. They are not the type of fish that dart all over the place swimming lots.

+MD Fish Tanks maybe you are right. I'm in the hobby since only 4 years. But it seams to depends from country. In France, everybody say to keep them in at least 100 gallon tank. I would love to try, I have a 80 gallon tank so I think I will buy 4 young discus.
