Discus Fish Aquariums To start with let’s talk about what fish to put in with the discus, everyone has their own opinion especially the discus professionals on this topic for various reasons.
There are three things to remember when buying your fish. Number 1 – Make sure your discus fish tank is one that is suitable for discus. In other words the fish you purchase must be able to live in a similar way to those discus in a natural environment. Make sure it is a decent size and has rocks and living water plants. Number 2 – The size of new fish must not be bigger than the discus. Discus fish do not like fish that bully and do not want to feel a threat from the other fish. Number 3 - As we have explained in the feeding discus section they have grinders in their jaws and are very slow and messy eaters. It is very important when choosing fish to share the discus tank not to get fish that are very quick eaters otherwise you will find the discus will not get a chance to eat anything. Below is a list of fish you could consider to share with your discus:
Discus thrive on soft water at temperature range of 80f - 84f is good although some fish keepers have been known to set there temperature at 90f.
