Singapore Aquarama is the name of the biggest fish show/competition held in Singapore every year (every 2 years). Entries for the competion come from all over the world.
corries, GBAs, Clown Loaches, are ok with the discus and the higher temperature (28-29) that the discus like. The temp might not be suited to the others that you mention.
Hey, dreams are free! Spotted ring leopard snakeskin? Either it's a ring leopard or spotted leopard, can't see any ring at all so must be my poor eyesight.
To me it's just an average leopard snakeskin. Mind you, fancy names can sometimes bring in the dough
The UV don't replace your WC i'm afraid. All it does is kill free floating algea cells and bacterials that passes through.
Can you get a drum or a big rubbish bin to adjust the water temp and then pump it into your tank using a pump? That will make life easier
You're only doing wc for a tank so shouldn't take you more than 20 mins if you do it that way.
I have to do mere than 50% and some almost 100% wc on about 30 odd tank ranging from 80-650 ltrs of water daily
Once you put the net in the parent will move away or attack the net. You can net the frys easily beside the parent. Take the fry out first and then the parents. It's not that hard. Or you can use a hose to siphone the frys out into a bucket.
Discus don't die so easily unless hit by diseases or kept in bad water conditions.
It will be very hard to feed them in a planted tank. Feeding off the parents itself is not enough and they might end up stunted.
