These laterally compressed cichlids are guaranteed showstoppers, but they are also a responsibility like no other. Whilst there are a lot of myths surrounding discus care and many differing opinions, often contradicting each other, there's also a lot that is plain fact. Discus require a very large tank with soft, acidic water and gentle flow. Though more recently bred European specimens are often kept in neutral conditions. The temperature needs to be very high for discus, making it difficult to keep them alongside anything else. Water quality must be excellent as these fish are really sensitive to pollutants,.
