    Default New Discus for my Xmas present

    I received four new discus the other day. This was my own Xmas present. I got an Fire Red-4", Red Marlboro-4", Silver Pigeon Blood-4", and German Wonder-4" from the man, Hans. All arrived in excellent condition and shape. I got these boys in an 40G breeder tank, Aquaclear 70 HOB, Aqueon 300W heater. Doing an daily WC of 50%, feeding 3 x daily. Will kept in QT for six weeks before adding to my 125G main tank. Already did an Qt bath of Acriflavin Neutral. IN the next few weeks wiil do an Praziquantel. Man I learned my lesson the hard way on about not QT discus fish before adding to established tank. I want to do things right this time, tried of seeing fish get sick and the white feces thingy.

    Awesome looking fish! That Pigeon is going to be a stunner!!! They all are but I just love the domestic pigeon look the most. Merry Christmas to you! lol. You got me thinking now I have 2 in QT too but I never medicate I just monitor. what does the Acriflavin Neutral and Praziquantel do? Dewormers and internal bacteria killer? Good luck with them! Update us.
