How long have you had that group? Those Heckels are really something.

Wow , Heckels and Altums in a natural planted tank , it's a double win if you ask me :) .
Do you have any aggresion problems having only 4 discus in the tank ?
What parameters do you keep them in and whats your filtration/WC regime of this tank ?
Please share some more info and photos of your tank Lukasz .

Hi.

OK
GH 8
KH 2
pH 5 - 6,5 - water change 30% one of the week
Heckel's they swim in the aquarium for over 15 months
Filtration 2 Eheim 2226 and 2228, and one mechanic filter 2000l/h
Water temperature 26
UV lamp 18W


There are 5 discuss and wars do happen, which is normal. The more so because I have a pair of Heckel's who defends the territory ;)

Now a few older pics:

Very nice Heckels Łukasz, nice, thick and round. Sounds like they are doing very well. What size tank is this?

The aquarium has 150x50x50cm...only...

Soon they will jump to a larger tank, and with them a team that undergoes treatment in a quarantine.

Can't wait to see your new additions and the bigger tank Lukasz .Many people recomends Dirk Shilingmans - Discus protector prior mixing different stocks , so maybe its something to consider with your priced stock .

[DxM]

No thanks. I will not overpay for salt and methylrosanilinii chloridum.
I have my own ways to combine fish ;) and whirling disease also ;)

I didn't know that discus protector recipe was already busted :) .I always thought it has something to do with PP because of it's pink colour until now .

Would you care to share your Enrofloksacine bath method (dose and duration )for mixing discus and for hadling the whirling disease oftenly seen in wild discus ?

5 liters water, 500mg enro, 5h bath.

Whirling:
1000mg per 100l first day
2 day 50% water changer and 500mg enro, and continue to 8 day. 50% water change and 500mg enro.
Aquarium without additional filtration, only glass, heater and aerator. Control the pH (range 6-7 is correct) and adjust if necessary - after adding the drug goes up.

plecocicho - they eat everything ;)

[plecocicho]

I can see that, judging by their baroque statute. What do you give them to eat.
