Discus fish – living room at Xmas

6 May 2010 11 Comments

Just tested my new 'HD Vado' camera and filmed the Discus Aquarium in our Living Room.....the lights are only around the fire at this time of Year! I will be moving at least 5 of the younger Discus to another Tank in the next day. The Congo Tetras are breeding and I have 2 other Mature pairs of Discus producing fry reguarly. A RAM, Rummy's and 4 Sterbai Corydoras are also in as Tankmates. They are generally peaceful but have the odd chase when I go near the Glass, as they think they are about to be fed!!

    5 stars, camera seems great :) Fish all look very happy and healthy :) Water crystal clear. You planning to upgrade as theirs lots of growing to be done with these beautiful fish :) 8-10ft would be nice :D. I say this because i’d love to see a big shoal of rummynose in there and a bigger shoal of cories of different mix :)) Glad you have another tank to move the smaller discus into aswell :) Happy New Year :)

    Thanks; Yes, I have 6 Aquariums; one a 5-footer which is homing 5 of these Discus now; + 2 other 4-footers and 2, 30”x18”x12”.
    The water is now ready for Discus in them all…….I may get a few more Sterbai Cories, but not others as my Temp. is 86F.
    I may get a few more Rummy’s, but I vowed not to, after losing some a while ago. Congo’s are now my Fav.Tetra!
    + Happy New Year to you and all other Youtube Subscribers!

    An excellent idea having a Discus Aquarium in a living room. Discus like peace and quiet and they can get very skittish, but at the same time they are very curious and love to watch anything and everything that is around them. I am sure they love the Xmas lights! Well done!!

  • rossyt99 said:

    These ones a certainly curious; Wild Discus, or newly introduced Fish may be a different matter…more ‘skittish’….but these are fine. They tended to go to the corner where the lights were a lot. (they are not there now. Xmas is over)

    Thankyou; I have moved a few out since then……the colours are brighter with the addition of White-worms’s a food treat.
