Yeah, the tank had actually filled up a bit when I took that one. The fish are swimming sideways by the time I get done draining the tank. It's funny to watch them.And I LOVE the pic of the massive WC. Gives me a great feeling inside ???.

Larger discus don't require this amount of effort. Juveniles get stunted without an aggressive water change schedule (been there, done that). This grow out tank is only 20 gallons so it's important for me to keep up on it.Why is it that they need the high pwc rate out of interest? I'm not disagreeing just wondering what drives it? I'm assuming it relates to their original habitat being very pristine(?) but while I've got experts

If a person doesn't mind small football shaped fish (lol), it isn't necessary. I'm trying to grow mine out big and round. The parents are huge so I know that the potential is there- the rest is on me. [emoji4]
Many thanks for the reply.
Is it nitrates building up that stunts or just 'dirty' water in general? Interested in what causes stunting and if it may relate to more 'common' fish as well.
Still green over here I'm SO curious what you paid for them.....but I'd understand if you don't say. If a discus is properly cared for, about how long do they usually live? I'm seeing like 10-18 years on Google.
Well, the breeder showed up to our club meeting last month with 3 bags of 3 juveniles, and put them into our monthly "mini auction". I won 2 bags and paid 35 total.
