The perfect water chemistry is stable water parameters meaning constant ph, temp, hardness, 0 ammonia/nitrites/nitrates.

Dont bother changing ph and hardness unless your breeding. Its not worth the pain and money otherwise. ;)

Aged water from your tap will be pefect for your discus. for breeding too.
