I have 2 discus as well as other fish which have all been fine together for 2 months.One of the discus is not eating ,sometimes leans to the side and is turning dark..this started the day before yesterday so I did a water change…he seemed to be ok one minute ,swimming round etc and then the next sitting near bottom of tank looking depressed.
Can someone help??
I meant Can anyone help in my question!
Discus can change colour a bluey black colour if under stress but i think you have a water parameter problem what size tank and what are your water parameters Ammonia and nitrite .
Discus should really be kept in a species only tank and are not for the Beginner to keep the fact you keep other fish with your discus leads me to think that youa re not experienced enough to own discus .
Discus Fish Room Would a 55 gallon fish tank make my floor sag?
I want a 55 or 75 gallon but I’m worried that my house (made in 1970s ish) is not strong enough to support 600+ lbs. It will be next to a wall in my 9×11 ft room. My parents would kill me if i damaged the house. Also, how many discus could I keep in a 75 gallon? Any ideas? thanks
It really depends on the construction of your house. If you can find out the direction of the floor joists then try to position it so that it has the joists at 90 degrees to the long face of your tank. This way the weight of the tank is spread across more than 1 joist.

Keeping Betta Fish Healthy Betta fish tail problem?
Hi. i have had a betta fish since october. Afew months ago, my betta fish got a large amount of ammoia in its tank because we didnt clean his bowl regularly. We quickly went to a local pet shop and found out how to fix it and now we try to keep him healthy. He has checkups using a tester for acid and arkeline and also weekly 3rd bowl changes. although, after the effects of the ammonia build-up, my bettas tail has become tattered and stringy. (Not shorter like the tail infection) and he also spends a while at the bottom of the bowl only swimming around when i come in. (because of food!) he also does not flare with his gills as he used to around the other fish. We also try to keep the temperature around 21 degrees (with a light) and feed him betta flakes (which are healthy for bettas) and his colour is mostly fine. I would also like to point out he seems to hide under ornomnets in the shade from the lamp. (problem?) anyway, thanks. hope for replies soon!
Before the other users here crucify you alive for using the word “bowl”, I think that he’s suffering from ammonia poisoning still. I’d suggest you get at least a three gallon tank (five gallon being ideal) with a filter and heater, and you’ll see him slowly start to perk up and flare again. Plus, his tail will heal up more. I’d suggest turning off the light, it sounds like it’s scaring him.
The Betta fish which is also known as the Siamese Fighting Fish is one of the most popular freshwater fish. It used to be that only the most serious aquarists had access to these beautiful looking fish however these days you can purchase them at pretty much any pet store and they are found in homes all across America.Betta fish while charming creatures with a wonderful appearance are quite delicat…
