Hey there, sorry to hear about the 2 dead fish. Not too sure on your sizing, sizing your fish as XL doesnt really say much. :o How big is XL?

Extra large

I think Eddie meant to ask...

"How many inches long were the fish".

Can you also remind us of your tank size.

I recall you can not get water test kits.

With no tests kits, it would be recommended that you do large water cahnges each day. You will want to age and aerate the water for one day before using it.

Extra large

Extra large doesnt really help, actual measurements are needed. An extra large discus can be an extra small discus for another.

Also, do you know what the two fish died of? Otherwise adding more fish seems a bit redundant.

I definitely wouldnt advise adding discus of that size with larger ones. Especially without knowing the temperament of the young ones.
