So I know that I can handle discus, but I'm just wondering about a few things...
1. The tank will be a 33gal, how many discus could go in there? I was thinking 3-4?
2. Are water changes every THREE days nessisary?
3. I'm planning on doing bare bottom tank, with some large peices of drift wood, would this work?
4. I'm not planning on breeding them, so does the water NEED to be at a PH around 6.8 or something?
5. Say if I got 4 discus, could I add a school of cardinal tetras?
6. When I get the fish, what should I feed as a staple food? Bloodworms? Or regular flake food?
7. Would some bottom feeders (ie. cory cats) work OK in a bare bottom tank? Are they needed?
Sorry for all the questions,
Thanks Guys
