Also, keep an eye on the parents. Sometimes they'll eat the fry if they're stressed. Separate them if you notice any aggression.

Re: discus fry survival rate tips
Check your ammonia levels. Even slight spikes can wipe out fry. Also, make sure the sponge filter isn't too strong, they can't handle heavy flow.

Thanks, everyone. I'll move it to the sandbed and see how it does.

can bubble corals handle high flow?
I've got a Bubble Coral in my 40-gallon tank and the flow seems too strong. The polyps aren't extending fully. Should I move it to a lower flow area or will it adapt?

Re: ideal temp for discus comfort
Okay, I'll raise the temp to 85°F and feed more. Can't upgrade the tank yet, but I'll look into it. Using a 200W heater, so it should handle the increase. Thanks for the advice.

Re: ideal temp for discus comfort
Mine are at 82°F. 40 gallon, sponge filter, no plants. They're small, maybe 2 inches. Not growing fast. Feeding flakes once a day. Should I raise the temp?
