Re: discus tank maintenance schedule

Plants help, but don't overdo it. Too many can mess with flow and oxygen levels. I keep it simple: anubias on driftwood and a few stems. What's your tank's nitrate reading right before changes?

Re: best food for vibrant discus colors

Alright, I'm sold. Gonna try the beef heart mix. Any tips on how to get them to eat it at first? My Discus can be picky. Tank's got a bunch of neon tetras and some otos. Water changes are 30% weekly, temp at 84°F. The filter's a hang-on-back, and I've got some dwarf hairgrass in there.

Re: best food for vibrant discus colors

What's the deal with paprika in the mix? Never heard of that before. I've been using Tetra ColorBits, but my Discus are still kinda pale. Tank's 60 gallons, with a canister filter and some anubias. Water changes are 25% weekly, temp at 83°F. Should I switch to beef heart?
