Re: discus tank water change myths

Heard some folks say you must change water after feeding beef heart. Myth? I feed it twice a week in my 65g, FX4, and change 30% after. Fish seem fine, but it's messy.

Re: best discus tank cleaning tools

I've found that using a soft-bristled toothbrush works wonders for cleaning around plants and driftwood. My discus seem to ignore it completely, which is a win.

Re: betta fish diet: pellets vs. flakes

I'm new to this, but my betta loves flakes. Should I switch to pellets? He's in a 3-gallon with a heater, no tankmates.

Re: discus aggression during feeding

I'm new to discus, but mine seem to do better when I feed them at the same time every day. Tank is 40 gallons, 3 discus, and I use a sponge filter. Temp at 82F, water changes every week. I feed them flakes and frozen bloodworms.

Re: discus tank substrate pros cons

I'm team bare bottom for quarantine tanks, but display tanks need substrate. My show tank's got black sand, and the contrast with their colors is insane. 65-gallon, Tidal 110 filter, and I add catappa leaves for tannins.

Discus.com is a joke ans

This Li guy's a total scam artist. He scammed me on 3 separate orders, and I only got one item with tracking. I called him up, asked about the other 2, and he claimed he didn't have tracking since it'd cost more for shipping. Covid was his excuse, and I was told to wait. I opened a paypal dispute ...
