Luke* Posted September 22, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 Hello back to everyone who said hello Kim, I saw some baby discus in Auckland a while ago for $25 each which I thought was reasonable. I don't really want to get them though until I have an automated water change system worked out so they have daily or every other day water changes of 50%.

Brianemone Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 is that a normal sort of water change? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke* Posted September 23, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2004 Not normal for most people/fish, but I believe it is important for healthy discus that grow the fastest and get to be show quality (not that that is my real intention, just want nice looking specimens). Nitrate inhibits their growth apparently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
