Well, last night I couldn't take it any longer and I ended up buying $76 worth of stuff from big als online!
Not bad for:
AC500 filter
"The Bag" by Seachem
250mL of Purigen by Seachem
36oz of Black Diamond Carbon
Refill AP Ammonia Test Kit
4 Pack filter carts. For my Emperor 400
All for $76 including shipping, NOT BAD!!!!!
But Annyyywayyyyyy....
Since I have all this extra filtration (The AC500 and Emperor 400 will be working together on my 55gal!!), I had a couple of questions about discus.
I know they're moderately difficult to keep but I think I'm up for the challenge. My questions are:
I see that they can be put in with Danios, Barbs (who knew?), rainbowfish,gourami, and plecos. I was just wondering if anyone has ever housed them with clown loaches? Loaches are peaceful and harmless enough, I wonder why they weren't listed.
Does anyone think it may be a problem?
Also, Other than strict water parameters, and high quality, variety of foods; is there anything else I should keep in mind? Are they okay being the only discus in the tank?
Any comments/advice is greatly appreciated as usual!
Thanks a bunch,
-Dan
