haha, its funny that you say that. I took the gravel out and gave the tank a good overall cleaning, no gravel no algea. Filter maybe In the process of changing it over. But the 120g i treat it the exact same and it has sand/gravel in it also. Fairly high but not as high as the 20g Let you know...

TDS- breeding tank-750 tap-190ish other discus tank-450 tap fw tanks prime only-390ish Just wondering why there is so much difference in the numbers. Both discus tanks are treated the same. If the TDS is suppose to be at 100-120 then i would guess that its extremely high and i would have to be...

If the fish is already 2-3 years old and you brought him home from the fish store like that, I wouldn't be concerned and If it hasn't bothered you before, then i don't see why it bothers you now, to the point you want to trade him in now. I would much rather keep all my fish i've had for months...

I got more then enough tank space and time to raise the young, thanks for all the help, will keep you updated.

i think from 5-7 or something like that. I m not sure on the discus buffer, But all i know is i had a no hatch rate, to me not using as much DB and then magically i get babies, Then i changed water and put some DB in it and got one wiggler with the new batch. As compared to with less DB where i...

So my best bet would be an RO unit? Would you suggest stopping using Discus Buffer all togther(slowly tho)

its a twenty gallon, The ph is around 6.8. I don't know what the conductivity is or what you mean? I try to do water changes every 2-3 days, 5-10 gallons I follow what i read and it says not to change water while there are eggs in there. And the parents keep laying eggs. So its hard to follow...

Here are some of the babies at 9 days free swimming, Notice the one we call fatso, he is so big and round compared to the others hes cute, and you will notice that they are starting to shape out more.

i am hoping that some the babies will be orange with dad's markings, its just intense his color and lines. I think the babies would be awesome if they did I think its a percentage will be like mom , some like dad, then some mixed with both not sure. I'm not sure on the ratio's on doing...

mom is a melbro red and dad is a Royal Blue. You cant sex them until they breed. Usually as a rule, cause anything before then is just guessing.

It took a while, and some patients added with the babies wondering what i am and the parents wanting food. They are constantly coming to the front of the glass when i come around to visit. Its cute.

New update Fry are about 5 days free swimming... Went to turn on the lights in my other fish tanks, Well saw the parents guarding and new clutch of eggs, Thought the babies were gone. Went up and the babies were feeding off the parents while they were guarding the eggs. Pretty neat to watch...

I have a piece of sponge around it. so hopefully that works for now. I was under the impression that if the parents didn't enough babies they would eat them. But apparently that isn't the case. They are still there annoying the parents. lol. Will keep you updated.

Nope nothing yet. Just a normal filter, heater. I got gravel and everything in there. LOL I felt bad for the original female who wasn't herself when we put her in there for about 2 months. so i gave her a tree and gravel to feel comfortable. Didn't plan on making it this far that soon, so i...

Sorry i never noticed anyone replied. Those wigglers did not make it, but it was their first time. small tiny batch. They since have laid again. Got wigglers and now are 2 days free swimming only about half a dozen. Still trying to figure it out what is causing it all.

About just under a year ago. I posted that i had my discus lay eggs. Well after that long of getting organized and fighting with my dumb pair no luck with the eggs, which were getting eating and they were fertilized. So about a month or so ago. I dumped the female back in the main tank where i...

well im glad you all agree. last night after my 50 percent water change on the 80g because of ammonia. Well i tested it an hour later and it was just getting higher and higher and fish started acting weird. So i moved the rest of anything left into the 120g. i just freaked out. the 120g was...

thats what i figured but i thought it would be short as in a few hours maybe more. However long it took for the filter to cycle the water a while. i was hoping by tonight i could move the fish. but even so it looks like the 80 is showing signs of very little ammonia all fish are accounted for. i...

i have a very cycled very old rena xp3... well i set up a 120gallon today to transfer my discus to. Well i moved the rena cause i read everywhere that if the filter is cycled you wont have to cycle the tank and it is instantly cycled. Well its not. Im dont have a cycled filter for my 80gallon...

well thats why im asking i dont know which can co exsist and which cant. i dont want to get all golds. or all blues. i would really like a mix. And the choices are limited around here. But thanks i will check out that link.

i basically was going to go with the whole shell dweller thing. I will be gettings some Lamprologus ocellatus (Gold) Lamprologus' ocellatus (Blue) Sunspot bevis well i hope this works there will be lots of shells and homes for everyone. that list might change as there are only golds in my city...
