Discus Fish Care- Here’s How I’m Able To Easily Raise and Breed Discus Fish

Wednesday, June 30th, 2010

I have to admit that at first, keeping and caring for discus seem like a difficult thing to do. I’ve heard of people that have raised discus and the fish got sick and died. Or they’ve tried breeding them and the fry ended up not living past 4 weeks old. So, I knew I had to find some discus fish care tips. And I wanted some tips on breeding discus fish, too.

After learning how to care for discus, I can proudly say it isn’t as hard as everyone make it out to be. I mean… it can be difficult if you’re not sure what to do. There’s a lot that you need to know when raising your fish.

For instance, you should know about water chemistry and pH, you should know the best size aquarium to get for your fish, which filters discus fish prefer, and if you want to breed your discus (at some point you probably will want to), you need to know what to do to get them to start breeding immediately and the proper steps to take when the fry are at an early age.

I know all of that information can be a bit overwhelming. At least for me it was. But after I came across a guy named Rob Clark, I knew I was going to be able to get all the information I needed.

He has a course called “Discus Fish Secrets“. The course is all about discus fish and things you should know when raising them. This includes discus fish care, breeding discus, and raising fry. The course also shows everything that’s need for the discus fish tank. He reveals everything that a discus owner needs to know, whether you’re a beginner or an expert.

The reason I trusted Rob is because he’s been raising and caring for discus fish for over ten years. The guy showed me that he cares about helping other discus keepers and he genuinely loves discus.

I knew that with his course, it would be like having a discus expert showing me every single thing I needed to do to raise and breed discus fish.

I knew I couldn’t get that anywhere else and I really didn’t want to risk my fish getting sick because of me just trying to do it all by myself. I know a guy that tried that and his fish ended up getting sick. What’s worse is, his fry all died. Out of a couple hundred of them, he was only able to keep one alive.

I felt sorry for him. But I knew that if he had the Discus Fish Secrets course, he wouldn’t have lost all his fry.

But the good thing is he finally learned what to do to raise his fish and how to breed them.

And so have I. I’m now able to provide proper care for my discus fish and am able to keep them happy and healthy. Oh and one thing I’ve learned is a happy discus remains healthy. Their immune system remains strong so that they’re able to fight off diseases.

If you want to learn some discus fish care secrets, I highly recommend you get the course. It’s one of the best resources for keeping and breeding discus. You’ll be happy you found it. To read more about the discus fish secrets course, click here.

Breeding Discus Fish

Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009

Most fresh water fish can be bred very easily. However, the discus fish is a notable exception. Because it is really particular about its breeding partner and has high maintenance needs, it can be a difficult species to breed. Especially when it comes to discus fish care. In case you are looking for some tips on breeding discus fish, just read on.

1. You need to keep discus fish in a tank which can hold at least 10 gallons of water. This will allow enough room for four fishes. Keeping any less may make the discus fish really unhappy because it is keen on socializing. You can keep two male and two females for increasing the chances of breeding.

2. Try to keep the water clean at all times and so you can look to change a part of it every day. Clean surroundings can help the discus fish to concentrate on a breeding partner.

3. Ensure that the water remains at a temperature of about 80 degrees. A fluorescent tank-lamp can help maintain this temperature. You should also monitor the temperature regularly with a thermometer.

4. The next tip on breeding discus is to watch out for behavioral changes in the fishes. A pair of fish intent on breeding may start to clean an area in the tank to lay eggs. You need to shift them to a breeding tank.

What is most likely happen next is:

1. The fish will lay eggs which the male will fertilize.

2. The breeding parents will feed and tend the babies.

By using these tips on breeding discus fish you may find that it is not so difficult after all!
