Re: best discus tank cleaning tools

I use a sponge and a razor blade for the glass. It's simple but works. Just be careful with the blade around silicone seams.

Re: why is discus tank ph dropping?

I had this issue too. Turned out my substrate was holding a ton of waste, even with vacuuming. Switched to bare bottom and pH stabilized. Maybe check under your sand for gunk buildup?

Re: why is my discus so skittish?


Thanks for the tips, everyone. I'll try dimming the lights and see if that helps. The tank is in the living room, so it's kinda busy. I do 30% water changes twice a week, using Seachem Prime. Maybe I'll add some floaters like frogbit.


That sounds like a good plan. Also, how's the noise level ...

Pls help ID this discus strain

Hey, newbie discus owner here, need some help with identifying a discus strain, please? Got an adult discus, about 7.5" and would love to know its gender too.

How do I add a pic using my phone?
