Hi Rahul, very informative indeed. One thing I would like to know whether its ok to have an internal filter?? Also would you inform whether the size of all the Discus should be the same or is it ok to have discus of different sizes.. Do the big ones bully the small ones?? Do let us know.. Cheers 😊
Hi Rahul great video . Very informative . How important is lights in a discus aquarium . Is it mandatory or can I do so without it .
If it's mandatory suggest some that I can put inside the acquarium ( water proof ones) since I have an acquarium cover. Won't be able to keep light on the top
Very informative video....i had few tanks before with gold ...and othr kind of fishes ...but nevr discuss.....soon going to hav lot....just waiting for house renovation....i will surely contact you ...bcos want to buy lots of them
All the best
I wouldn't say I'm a beginner but, I started this hobby like a year ago and I am still kind of nervous to purchase discus fish. I'm planning on either a 55 gallon tank or a 70 gallon one. Right now, I have four goldfish in my 40 gallon tank, yes overstocking I know. I have been told that discus are one of the harder fishes to keep..
Hi... Discus are not hard to keep if you keep the water and filteration and these 15 points that I have mentioned in this video... Don't over stock.. Ideally its 10 gallons per Discus.. So plan your stock accordingly..
I hope you got the 70 gall
You're life saver brother thank you so much for this very helpful video .
Do a video how to pick/buy a healthy discus please
God bless you Rahul Bhai
Thank you... Yup lots of new topics coming soon... Do subscriber and stay tuned
@@FwrapperAqua already
Hi Rahul. Where do you purchase the aquarium analog thermometer the ones half moon shaped which is visible in all your videos. Couldn’t find it on Amazon mate. Pls help
Hi. Nice Video. very informative. I learnt a lot on maintaining Aquariums. Can you make a video on Gold Fish ?Where would you get a analogue type of thermometer for aquariums?Can you send me a link for this?
Nice bro
Thanks bro
I got lot of insides about the discus fish as well as maintenance . I ask one question if fish affected some decease how to identify and share the treatment . Which are the mediation currently are you using .
Nice. Sir
Thanks bro
Wow, great video. I hope my videos will be as good as yours one day!
Nice video bro. Missed on basic medicine to store 😃 and their usage and dosage
Thank you... I have made separate videos on the same.....
@@FwrapperAqua ok bro. Now I will search for the same and eat the contents. 😀
Sir is discuss suitable with polar parrots??
I think they are not too much aggressive I have them (polar parrots )
rahul could you please make a video on blood parrot fishes
Love u lacks
Hi bro, can I use black background stickers for my discus tank? I'm using white background at present
Thanks in advance
Can i use top filter for discus fish tank
Great video. You missed to cover water changes ?
I have made 2 separate videos on water conditioning and water change plumbing..
Hi Rahul great vedio Just keep it up my friend .
Rahul a quick advise if you please can i keep 10 discus stendker in 240 L will it be enough when they grow in full size, I have no tank mates and only two 18cm artificial plants because I start having aggrisive problems problems, also after all your advises now I am very confident of myself to keep discus.
Thanks a millions
Nasir
This tank is good for 10 fishes.. No more adding... Ideal size is 30 liters per full grown Discus.. So this is OK.. ALL THE BEST
@@FwrapperAqua Hi Rahul thank you very much for your advise I appreciate your help.
Nasir
What is that which is running on the corner of your aquarium
Hi bro.. One of my discus fish is not eating pass 4 to 5 day's it's always at the Conner up ways like and the fins are little clamped and this is my first time in keeping discus so tell me what should I do bro
ur doin an amazing job, Blessings from London
Thank you so much
First Like
Thank you
Sir can you tell me a good filtration for (4ft × 2ft × 24") tank???
I am planning to start one myself i was hoping to find information on a planted discus tank can you do another video on it or reply here
Thank you so much for the great video
Keep it up 👍🏻 stay safe
I have made lot of videos on planted aquariums... Please do have a look at my Playlist...
@@FwrapperAqua i was referring to specifically on discus planted aquarium 😅
I personally don't like to keep Discus in a Planted tank.. Because it gets difficult to maintain the water parameters... I might do one big display tank later.. But not now..
@@FwrapperAqua cool cool.. Well keep safe keep healthy happy fish keeping 👍🏻😅😅
how often do you change water and how much water do you change at a time?
I want to keep bare bottom tank for discus is it necessary to place white or black paper under tank so that discus fish can't see himself in bottom glass. I hv glow tetra so I can't put paper under tank now what I can do.
Bro can we add the black dolphin fish with discuss ...
In discuss tank
I will not recommend.... Any fish you are adding with Discus... Please quarantine them atleast for 45 days before adding them together
It's an informative video. Great.
I used digital thermometer with glass thermometer.
Both indicate same temperature. So if when digital thermometer will have problems, it automatically get recognized because of glass thermometer.
I request to make the video on water hardness i. e. GH, KH, dGH.
What is proper hardness for discus. How can it maintain??
Hi.. Thank you for your feedback.. I to use both the thermometers in the same tank... I haven't gotten into so much details with water.. I have mainly learnt about the tds and pH.. I need to be really sure about a subject before I make a video.. I will once I learn it...
Hi Rahul. Can we use power head filter for discus tank. filter is sobo 1504 ??
What is your tank Size?
@@FwrapperAqua 4 feet by 1 and half feet tank.
Sir can I keep two discussed in 2.5ft tank with some angels with substrate
Please see this video I have explained everything...
Wqter change routine pls
Hey, I'm starting my 1st discus tank. And I got all (but one) of my doubts clarified in this video. My house is a bit noisy with the road traffic and horns. All my other fishes do fine. Would it stress out the Ds? And is 33x14x14inches (100litres) for 6 Ds fine?? HELP!!!😣😄👍👌👏👏
Hi.. Bro noise is not much of an issue... To much of movement in front of the tank is not ideal.... Ideal tank capacity is 30 liters or 10 gallons for a Discus so they can put on size....
@@FwrapperAqua Thanx Bro, that's an incentive. Nah..movements/ persons are very minimal in my room. I got you on 30ltrs/D, still asked..and still risking in 100ltrs for 6. Fingers crossed! 😊🤘🏼
Recently got my fishes small around 2 inches and i got 7 of them in my 325l planted tank what should i do to reduce stress
Sir how much TDS level in discus tank??
Hi I wanted to ask you, I am starting a 110 gal tank and trying to establish and cycle it, I added 4 guppies. When my tank is etablished I want to put discus and get rid of the guppies. Do you think that is ok to do?
See Guppies carry a lot of parasites.. Which will remain in the tank.. And will effect your Discus... Best is to use products like seachem stability or api quick start (these 2 are good} .. cycling the tank
Nice video.Thanx. But how can select male or female?
It's very difficult to say male and female in Discus... I still don't know..
Hi, Great video.
I have a black background planted aquarium (75 gallon) and white sand substrate.
Will the black background cause peppering. Should I change it? I am thinking about getting 2 each of blue diamonds, deep red turquoise, rafflesia. Will these be okay?
Black background might call issues When you start up fresh...
Fwrapper Aqua Thanks for the reply
U have a black background tank in the video and I can’t see any peppering on your fish. How do you do it?
Like I said.. Once you're fishes are used to you and your setup peppering will not happen... These fishes are with me since 2 years plus... So they are completely comfortable... But when they are new and if you put them in a dark background.. They will feel stressed
Okay. Thanks for helping. Btw love your planted tank in the back.
Where do u live in Bangalore sir?
Can i make use of continuous water change system (Drip Water) to maintain water freshness.
If you have that much of water you can... But weekly 2 water changes are more than enough.. In drip system there is lot of water wasted.. If you can use it for plants and all then OK
@@FwrapperAqua Thanks for your suggestions :)
Hi Rahul.. how frequent do we need to siphon the tank..??
My Discus tanks are all bare bottom.. So I siphon out the waste everyday .. And 30 % water change once in 3 to 4 days
Aquarememidies discus fish food(wild elite bits) is good for discus fish
I have never used it so no idea
How to use Seachem safe in Discus aquarium (150 L) to reduce clorine and ammonia level. Is it safe to use?
Rahul bhai..i just started keeping discuss of size 2 inch...should i go fot bear bottom..current m having sand at bottom
I will recommend only bare bottom.. Because its easy to maintain...
Thanku so much rahul bhai...should i add some driftwood in it...
And really i enjoyed your videos with full knowledge..
Even i always keep to watch your discuss at the background of your videos
@@kuwarveer1481 thank you 🙏... Start without driftwood
Hello sir ...great video... sir please help me out I have just 1st time setup a new tank for discus I have bought 5 discus of medium size just 1day back but they are only seating at bottom and in a corner of the tank .. and have not yet eat any of their food ... sir please help me..my water temp is about 28-29°
Firstly let them settle.. Discus take at least a week to 10 days to settle... Hope you you have cycled the tank and all your water condition are OK?
@@FwrapperAqua yes .. thanks alot ... do I need a heater coz my water is already at 27-29° so didn't bought a heater
What's the temperature and ph and water change you maintain for wild discus?? Can we keep wild with other type of discus ??
Sorry.. I have never kept wild Discus.. So no idea... But it is not the regular water parameters.. So I am not sure if you can mix wild and tank breed Discus
bro do u know discuss breeder in and around bengalore or karnataka
I am soon going to start selling Discus in Bangalore... Please do follow our Facebook page Fwrapper aqua for updates
Hi Rahul. Could you please let me know what pH do you keep your discus in, how do you decrease the pH as I have pH of 8.2 after aging the water and how do you avoid pH swings while water changes. Thanks in advance.
Ideally 6.5 to 7.5 is good pH... I currently use a ro unit... You can try almond leafs... I don't recommend the pH reduction products because the pH will keep changing which very harmful for fish
@@FwrapperAqua Thank you so much for the info. You should make a video about it. Would definitely watch.
Do you know any good breeders in Delhi NCR area.
Hi Can you suggest the place to get discuss fromin bangalore. whos is the breeder you visit
I generally get from Mumbai... Which varieties do you want... I can source... Let me know the size you are looking for...mail me the details to ask.fwrapperaqua@gmail.com.. Also send me your number
Sir can you plz help me out for buying discus
Bro white sticker or white paint which one bro
White sticker is better than paint.. More easy to use
Hey bro, kindly add product link if you have bought any item online.
Hey bro.. Yes I will add the product links
@@FwrapperAqua great thanks
hello, i have a 15gal tank, is it ok just to have 1 pc of discus size about 10cm? i plan no tankmates but planted with pots, bare bottom. thank you in advance
Please see my video.. The very first thing I have mentioned is discus are a schooling fish you need keep them in groups.. Minimum 6 to 8 nos.... Please don't keep 1 fish... Stress it out
@@FwrapperAqua thanks a lot for the confirmation.. yes you mentioned about number of fish for discus for them to thrive well..
I was unable to find the link for analog tank temperature meter
It's currently not available
Bro, as i am bringing my discus shortly, i just want to ask you should i give them pp bath before introducing them into my tank.
If you know how to do pp bath process well you can do... If not I will not recommend
@@FwrapperAqua I have watched your video of PP treatment.
Hello, i am from Bangalore and planning to start a discus tank.
Do you know some breeders who sell discus in Bangalore?
TIA
Hi Sumit... I saw your email... Please send me your number to my email I will call you and we can talk
Bro can I know the best size of tank for 6pairs of discuss
Please see the video.. All the details are explained
bro i need to setup an marine aquarium. how much it would cost. In my area they say setup would cost around 35000
Bro this setup costed me about 17000... Actually I have made 3 videos on how to set up a Marine tank... And I have explained everything in detail in those videos... Please do have a look
@@FwrapperAqua can u share me ur contact number?
Sir what should be the ph level and tds for breeding tank
Tds below 100 is good... PH is fine don't worry to much about pH...
@@FwrapperAqua thanks bro
please guide diseases remedy solution of discuss fish
Please send me a video of your fish to fwrapper.aqua@gmail.com or please post the video along with water parameters on our Facebook page Fwrapper aqua... Without seeing the fish I cannot say anything
Vhaya may i give my discus fish daily basis TETRA bites with blood worms???
tetra bites hikari biogold and blood worms are good for discus fish daily basis???for their growth and life???
When we are purchasing any fish, if we are not sure about how they were kept or their diet can we use epsom salt treatment to clear their system?
If you are not sure of that I recommend not to buy from that seller.... See you should understand one thing a fish will eat only what it has been eating for a long time... A full meat eating fish does not know Pellets is also food... Please understand that... So please check what the fish has been eating... Simply forcing a fish to eat something and simply doing treatment will never help.. You will put the fish in more stress...
Ok, will keep that on mind.
Can i direct add water in sumps ?
Provided your Sump is clean..

My tanks temperature stays 30-35 is is ohk for dem
For Discus ideally 28 to 30...degress.. But 35 is very high don't use heaters
Namaskara 🙏 Can you let me know the life span of Discus? How many years they live?
I am a Discus keeper since only 3.5years.. So cannot tell you a full life span... 4 years is sure.. Because I have few Discus from so long
