What PH are you keeping your tank at?

It's at 7 now even thou discus likes the ph very low in the 6 range but they seem to be doing fine I ll keep trying to bring it down some more.

I've heard they can handle up to 7.3 that is unless your trying to breed and remember a stable ph is better than a preferred.

How many discuss can I keep in a 54 bowfront ... Not to hijack the thread or anything?

 

[j0el1212]

Honestly I don't know I'm pretty new at handily discus myself.



This is what help me a lot these guidelines
