Hello,
I started my hobby about 2 years ago.. I got betta fish for my kid and it died, then it took me some time to find out about nitro cycles
Now I'm keeping discus fish.. Would be interesting to share or get new information...

Hi and welcome to the forum

The following link is something every discus keeper should read. If you don't want to read it, discus are vegetarian and all the Jack Wattley books and videos got it wrong.

Ecology and life history of an Amazon floodplain cichlid: the discus fish Symphysodon (Perciformes: Cichlidae)

Hi! I looked into discus for a new 125 G tank & concluded they required too much precision care for my tastes, although some in a Facebook group said it’s not as complicated as others make it out to be. Good luck!

I am originally from California too, & lived in the beautiful SF Bay Area & later Southern California.
