@aSilentGentleman Theres no yes or no answer tbh, but if the tetras are put in first and are adult size then they should be fine :) make sure the tank has hiding places just in case.
@krshsuman yes you can, they will go together perfectly :) just make sure to rember that for every 10 tetras you need 10 gallons of water and for every 1 discus you need 10 gallons of water, so make sure you have a large enough tank! :)
@TheGeordiePedro The discus wouldn't eat the tetras, would they? At least, by the time the discus are full size I should think they'd be about 8 inches length, making tetras seem like quite a tempting dinner!
Will someone please explain to me how 100% water changes are possible, because some aquarist say that all good bacterias are gonna die and so on, and it is not logical that I have to change my 250 liters aquarium water every single day, so will someone solve this mistery for me???

i got one to day but i got told u need acid in you're tank for thes fish and i dident get told that untill i was in the car so do u have to have acid in the tank like dirty soot water? i got the gravel and slow flowing water but acid is that a real biggy?
I have three angels in a 37 gallon column. I also have a 6 inch pleco, 4 cory cats and a butterfly fish. Do you think I could get discus? Are they ok with angels or is my tank to small? I have had the angels for about 4 years now and I am a little scared to add anything. Any suggestions?
What a beautiful tank ! Your Discus are super too. I can remember back (I won't say how long ago...) when the only color of Discus you could get was brown...and if you had some with hints of colors, they were really exotic...lol! It was love at first sight with me, along with my elephant nose "Thor", we managed to be good friends for a long time! Keep up the good work...your results mirror your effort (no doubt)...Keep uploading!!!
Awesome, i never thought of doing a double layer bottom!! facepalming real hard at the moment! Its looks fantastic! I love discus, my fav specinen!! but i cant get them yet due to the fact that a while back i bought tiger barbs when i set the tank up so that i knew it was habbitable along with the water tests i did and coz they were cheap, and so i can currently only have short finned fish because the barbs will nip. little bastards! lmao, may move them out of my big tank! then can get discus!
hey bro ,,, very nice collection ,, i also have some discus fish ,,, may be one day i will have an aquarium like urs ,, its beautiful bro,, plzz keep updating ur videos ,,,
are discus fish hard to take care of and well i be able to get at least one or two in a 20 gallon tank with angel fish and posbbily other fish and a 20-50 bio filter?? please answer back thankss
oh and now i noticed that one of my fish has blurry eyes. again, one problem after another. problems are literally coming out of no where. someone please help!!!! oh and btw the clown loach is now dead.
@brandonkr Dude that sucks, I have my fish tank next to a window, (but the sunlight never comes near the tank) its good to have a tank next to a window b/c when my fish tank gets really dirty, I get my vacuum I place the outer end of my tube to the window, my vacuum sucks in the water the water then comes out through the window, (its much easier and faster) take all your fish out of the tank, put them in a container, use you vacuum to suck all the water out from the tank, when 99% of the water
@brandonkr is gone then get a bucket, put some gravel into the bucket, clean the gravel the same thing you would do when you first get the gravel, put the clean gravel in another bucket, get the rest of the gravel and do the same, clean your plants and ornaments too. Once thats all done clean the inside of your tank with a cloth (etc). Put the gravel back in the tank, same with the decoration, put water, put the appropiate water temp for your fish, put aquarium salt if you have it only a bit....
@brandonkr Then put water conditioner, put all your fish back in the tank, turn the filter on, then wait for the next day check on your fish see how they are doing, hope this helps :)
@UploadingEnigma99 finally someone helps me lol thank you. but my 4 fish that are left are doing okay now. the blury eyes on my jewel cichlid are clear again. im assuming it was from the salt i added. but everything seems good. i just gave up on the gravel. im guessing its just natural waste(even though i only have 4 fish lol). its been about 2 days since ive touched the tank. im gonna do a 25% water change every 2 weeks. BUT im wondering if an undergravel filter would help. i have the cheap..
and no im not overfeeding them, i feed them once every other day. the dirt(or whatever it is) is literally coming from nowhere, so now i have to vacuum the gravel and do a water change every day. where in the world is all of this crap coming from? im guessing from the medication cause it didnt start happening until after i put it in, but i am SO frustrated with this. i cant even imagine doing saltwater!
okay im back with yet another problem! seriously ive had this tank for about a couple months now and ive had problems ever since i bought it, im really starting to consider selling it because its such a pain! but ok anyway my fish were showing signs of ick(probly cause the nitrates were high a while back). so i treated them with some medication. now my clown loach looks like hes about to die. PLUS my gravel is getting dirty for no reason, i vacuumed the gravel earlier today, and its dirty again.
Hi i am a new youtuber looking for a lot of views on my vids please check me out i am looking for a break i am hoping to show people the wonders of fish. my channel has a comment question of the week idea. the comment question of the weak idea video is bassicaly one weak i would ask you a question that has to do something with aqauariums. And the next week you would ask me a question please leave a responce on my channel telling me what you think please.
@Sweeda88 yeah i went down to the store and bought a new one and its all good now. i bought an actual stone this time(the last one was some cheap thing lol)
hey im having some issues with the air stone in my tank. it worked good at first but eventually bacteria built up and clogged it up like normal. the instructions say to poke holes in it with a needle. i did that and it is suddenly really loud now. it isnt the pump, its the stone. do i have to buy a new stone every month??
You have a very active tank! I have a tank with a Plocastomus, Goramis, Skirt tetras and were getting some community angel fish soon! We had beautiful ram ciclids, but they didn't make it when the filter got messed up :(
@jenniferfayeful Hey! Now I look back at that comment, 4 months later to see where I am now. 2 more tanks, 1 saltwater, 2 freshwater breeding tanks and about $3000 poorer. It's all worth it though!
fish have got to be the most boring pointless fucking thing to have as a pet. fish belong in water not a fucking tiny ass bowl of piss water from the sewer that gets tunneled into our houses. but rly fish suck as pets. they don't do shit. get a dog. and i rly hate when ppl cry because their fish died. IT'S A FUCKIN FISH! YOU PROBABLY EAT FISH AT RESTAURANTS!
@confuse I guess is that they will live longer in a fish tank that in the wild. Of course these fish tank raised and not got from the wild. They look happy and well cared for if you ask me. Not everyone needs the hobby of playing doom. People should be allowed to have other hobbies and interest. Plus I think if we see fish like this it will want us to save the oceans and rivers for the ones in the wild.
what are good tank mates with discus fish? and what is good to feed them?also. what tank size would u recomend for discus fish? write back soon please! =D
@Michael7klufas6 The fish in this tank look like they are getting along OK. But I think they might be best most often in their own take with out other fish. But Corydoras cats would be good. I love plecos. The Cardinal Tetras should looked good in that tank. So if you have to add other fish come Cardinal Tetras or Neon Tetras. No Cichlids even thou the Discus is a Cichlid. NO Barbs. NO Gourami. I love Discus and have not had any for 40 years or so.
I have a question Im a long time aquarist and I would like to purchase a discus, maybe, where would I find one? ( oh and don't worry I've done a lot of research into discus care)
@confuse I would agree with you about parrots for sure. If they are out of the cage they are not flying around in trees and a place like the amazon. But fish, if the tank is setup right and big enough, have a nice world around them. Might be better than their real world. Also I understand that parrots are very smart ... so on parrots we might agree. I owned a tropical fish shop for four years (back in the late 60s). I know a lot about fish. We sold a few birds.
@confuse Not goldfish but we did try selling Koi and pond supplies during the summer. We were so busy during the winter months but during the summer are sales were almost zero. So we tried Koi and pond supplies. If we had been smart we would have just closed during the summer. Or hired some young person to just work during the summer. But my wife and I were very professional .. best fish..best live plants..I even sold our own fish medication. Did a community college class on it.
@confuse Good question. Well back then everyone was working. We had a lot of young customers and some of them had been buying fish for years. I am sure one of them would have loved working at the shop. I could have worked welding for during the summer. One of our young customers did end up owning Siggee's Aquarium. I told the shop to a Church of God pastor and told him he HAD to be open on Sunday. Our big day. He sold the business later to a young guy. End of Part 1
@confuse Part 2: The Church of God pastor sold the business later to a young man. Years later I went into a pet store and the young man behind the counter said "Mr. Siggee" don't you remember me? It was a young kid that would come and buy fish.. at our shop. He became a high school science teacher and he is the guy that got my shop from the Church of God pastor. My name is not Siggee by the way! That was a name the wife came up with for the shop.
@confuse Because almost everyone was working. Not like today. Plus it would be a summer job only. So great for a young person out of school. Plus we had a lot of young customers that loved fish.
Today yes.. might think of hiring a retired person ..but back then a young person would have been great. Plus we could not have paid much. Of course if I worked those three months as a welder we would have had a nice income from that. We had the shop four year. Made money in winter.
Yes, large regular water changes and clean the gravel. I have a 40 gallon tank with 5x discus ,6x corys and 2x pearl gouramis. My tank looks as good as this one. Not rocket science keeping discus, regular maintenance, varied food diet and quite high water temperatures (relative).
@SteelCityFilms Hey man, what kind of hardware are you using on that? What size tank? Looks mucho excellent!!! My 55 is coming along, but not quite as sweetly as yours is!
@jonga27 If you feed the fish what they naturally eat like algae for herbivorous fish or brine shrimp for carnivorous fish you will have beautiful and lively fish. All depends.Discus are carnivores so I would feed them the brine shrimp. Good luck!:)
I have a 30 gallon tank how many disucs could i put in it? with maybe some neon tetras. I have been keeping fish for years and could keep it very clean.
I have a 30 gallon tank how many disucs could i put in it? with maybe some neon tetras. I have been keeping fish for years and could keep it very clean.
@kaleluk31 I was thinking the same thing. How on earth do you keep the water clean enough for discus in a tank like this? Thats why you see so many discus tanks with no gravel at all! Beautiful set up though.
How much do these fish cost? also how big do they get? Are they comm,semi aggressive or very aggressive? Also what fish do and dont they like to tank with. THANKS
This video embodies a confidence from having a winning combination...Beginning with the awesome catch at the beginning, to the ultimate aquarium tank display...Discus being one of the most sought-after and amicable fish in your perfect tank, only furthers your triumph.
petland and petsmart doesnt carry discus u have to go to a fish store that isnt comecialy owned. petsmart and petland dont care about the fish they carry bout the money (most) it mainly matters on the ppl that work there. if u can find a lfs (local fish store) i would recomend suporting it or at least buying the fish there.
You could house 2 adult angels in a 29g, and no discus...Discus really dont do well in groups of less than 5..and you need at least a 55 for 5 adult discus, thats if its a bare bottom tank, you need a 75 for 5 adult discus if its planted. This is just a general rule of thumb for whats best for the fish to thrive, however you could put 3 discus or angels in a bare bottom 29g. But it really is a bit small for any more than a breeding pair.
Beautiful fish and nice video. Thanks for sharing!

So we tried Koi and pond supplies. If we had been smart we would have just closed during the summer. Or hired some young person to just work during the summer. But my wife and I were very professional .. best fish..best live plants..I even sold our own fish medication. Did a community college class on it.

@hnbbs why a young person?
confuse 1 year ago
@confuse Good question. Well back then everyone was working. We had a lot of young customers and some of them had been buying fish for years. I am sure one of them would have loved working at the shop. I could have worked welding for during the summer. One of our young customers did end up owning Siggee's Aquarium. I told the shop to a Church of God pastor and told him he HAD to be open on Sunday. Our big day. He sold the business later to a young guy. End of Part 1

@confuse Part 2: The Church of God pastor sold the business later to a young man. Years later I went into a pet store and the young man behind the counter said "Mr. Siggee" don't you remember me? It was a young kid that would come and buy fish.. at our shop. He became a high school science teacher and he is the guy that got my shop from the Church of God pastor. My name is not Siggee by the way! That was a name the wife came up with for the shop.

@hnbbs no i mean wehn you said you should have hired a young person why a young person and not an older person
confuse 1 year ago
@confuse Because almost everyone was working. Not like today. Plus it would be a summer job only. So great for a young person out of school. Plus we had a lot of young customers that loved fish.
Today yes.. might think of hiring a retired person ..but back then a young person would have been great. Plus we could not have paid much. Of course if I worked those three months as a welder we would have had a nice income from that. We had the shop four year. Made money in winter.

@hnbbs aww i wish i knew you then i would love to clean out the fish tanks how much would you pay me
confuse 1 year ago
Yes, large regular water changes and clean the gravel. I have a 40 gallon tank with 5x discus ,6x corys and 2x pearl gouramis. My tank looks as good as this one. Not rocket science keeping discus, regular maintenance, varied food diet and quite high water temperatures (relative).

hey mate very beautiful discus they look in great condition here. can i ask what you feed them on a daily basis for their colors to be so bright?
please get back to me asap
jonga27 1 year ago
@jonga27 If you feed the fish what they naturally eat like algae for herbivorous fish or brine shrimp for carnivorous fish you will have beautiful and lively fish. All depends.Discus are carnivores so I would feed them the brine shrimp. Good luck!:)

@kaleluk31 I was thinking the same thing. How on earth do you keep the water clean enough for discus in a tank like this? Thats why you see so many discus tanks with no gravel at all! Beautiful set up though.

skitllesman98 2 years ago
petland and petsmart doesnt carry discus u have to go to a fish store that isnt comecialy owned. petsmart and petland dont care about the fish they carry bout the money (most) it mainly matters on the ppl that work there. if u can find a lfs (local fish store) i would recomend suporting it or at least buying the fish there.
teddyzaper 2 years ago
i think it completely depends on the employee who works in the aquatics department. and the thing is, my lfs prices are much higher than petsmart.

hey dude can u give me a good list of fish that can go in a 29 gallon tank with atleast 1 dicus and 1 angel fish or more
TheAquariumKid 2 years ago
Cardinal Tetras, Rumy Nose Tetras, Penguin Tetra, Cory Cat fish, sometimes Rams.
SteelCityFilms 2 years ago
i mean liek how many angel fish and dicus can i fit in a 29 gallon ?
TheAquariumKid 2 years ago
You could house 2 adult angels in a 29g, and no discus...Discus really dont do well in groups of less than 5..and you need at least a 55 for 5 adult discus, thats if its a bare bottom tank, you need a 75 for 5 adult discus if its planted. This is just a general rule of thumb for whats best for the fish to thrive, however you could put 3 discus or angels in a bare bottom 29g. But it really is a bit small for any more than a breeding pair.
