Few queries on Discus keeping in Hi-Tech Planted Tank
Posted: Wed Feb 10, 2016 10:38 pm
I have 3 concerns to mention-
1) 20ppm+ NO3 ppm
2) V high flow fr eg 5000lph fr a 150L tank
3) v high lights
1) from what i know is Discus can do well till 15ppm NO3
2) Discus dont like much flow that we normally know however i have recently read somewhere that high flow keeps them active rather than being lethargic. Dont know abt its validity.
3) when last September a pair in my tank laid eggs, they chose d darkest spot for that which makes me feel that they might not be liking lights much nd prefer dusky environment.
Please shed some experience on these points...
