How to give tablets to Discus
Text and Photos by Rosario Curcio
Here is my method for administering medicines in tablet form to our favorite fish. The condition is that discus like tubifex (tubificid worms) and that’s why we’re using it in this case, but this solution works for all types of freeze drieds that have a high grade of absorbency.
The method is very simple, the object is to be able to crush and dissolve the tablets as best as possible and to do in a way that the tubifex or other freeze drieds totally absorbs the product. Another advantage is that the Discus do not realize the possibility of new flavors, because they eat from the outside in.
