Hey Jeff, are you into betta now? ron

agree with Caryl that more info is needed, what size is the discus and how many. Did you get it from the LFS....... ron

Hi Lorrainel, sorry to hear about your problem with the discus. Just got back from M'sia and will try to catch up with all the posts that i miss out when things get back to normal. Like Sharn said try to keep the water in top condition with more WC. ron

For discus, oxheart, bloodworm, earthworm, whiteworm 6 or more time a day with daily waterchanges. ron

They are a waste of time and a rip off. jmo ron

very nice indeed. ron

Well done :bounce: Sorry about the knuckles :oops: Ron

Those SSS looks really good Chin, Are they the new one you got. How many of them did you get or are they the same fish in the photos. Jettin, it's about time you get back into it. Competition means better quality discus for us all in future. Good to see more people with knowledge and experience breeding true strains instead of muck crosses. Cheers, Ron

Hey Chin, Glad to see you finally figure out the way to post photos. Those fish are looking good. Keep the photo coming. Ron

Dosage depend on how clean your tank is and your bio load. It will oxidise every thing it come s in contact with. It will kill your bio filter. Better to treat it in a bucket. What are you trying to treat? ron

You shouldn't have got the fish if it is not 100% right. You should have quarantin it for at least 2 weeks to de-stress (if there is such a word) it and to adapt to your feeding and waterchange routine without being hassle by other fish. Discus with gill flukes will be dark, clamp fins, hiding, swollen and flare gill plate , and all those mention by Jeff and Sharn. Ron

Stuff some filter floss (white stuff) into the hose and get something to puss it through the hose a couple of times and it'll be clean as. Fill the hose with water first to soften the gunk. Ron

We'll have to go there and release afew hundred baby discus to see whether they'll survive. :roll: Ron

If he don't have it in stock he'll gladly order it in for you. Good guy to deal with and very friendly. :bounce: Cheers, Ron

Sharn is spot on with the waterchange. Just do a waterchange before you go. Food is not crucial. Ron

You sure you're not adding something special to your water. How I wish my spotted is doing the same thing.

Hey Sharn, are you sure you're old enough to look at the bits lol. Luke, nice pair you got there and thanks for sharing the photo. Ron

Glad it work out alright for you Al. Ron

I don't think the heart shape discus is popular at all nor is any manually modified fish. Az far as i know nobody is interested in them at all.

Yep, better do something about it before they all die off lol. Sorry for the hijack tan. ron

Hi Alan, i use 50grams of rock salt per ltr of water. Try hatching it in a coke bottle as i showed you with the litter nipple(hope you still have it) fix to the cover of the bottle. Ron

Looks like the plant are well established now. Nice looking tank. Ron

Nice looking baby ram you got there. Keep up the good work. Might be interested in some for the planted tank that i'm going to set up. Let me know when you're selling them. Ron

I have mine right at the bottom of the tank so i don't have to unplug it during waterchanges. Ron

200 ltrs will be fine for discus. When you're ready for discus PM me and i'll tell you all you need to know about discus. Cheers, Ron
