Product Description:
The Golden Yellow Discus features a rich, golden-yellow coloration. This vibrant hue can range from a deep, warm gold to a lighter, almost lemon-yellow shade. The coloration is often uniform across the body, though there may be subtle variations or patterns. Discus fish have a distinctive, disc-shaped body that is laterally compressed. This round, flat shape contributes to their elegant and graceful appearance. Their fins are relatively large and flowing, with a smooth texture. The fins often have the same golden-yellow coloration as the body, though they may sometimes exhibit slight variations or shading.
Water Temperature: Golden Yellow Discus prefer warmer temperatures, ideally between 82-86°F (28-30°C).
pH: They thrive in slightly acidic to neutral water conditions, typically between 6.0 to 7.5 pH.
Tank Size: A minimum tank size of 50 gallons is recommended for a small group of Discus, as they need ample space to swim and establish territory.
Temperament: Discus fish are known for their calm and peaceful nature, though they can be sensitive to changes in their environment. They tend to be a bit shy and may need time to acclimate to new surroundings or tank mates.
Tank Requirements: These fish prefer a well-maintained aquarium with warm, soft, and slightly acidic water. A temperature range of 82-86°F (28-30°C) is ideal. Regular water changes are crucial to keep their environment clean and stable.
Diet: Discus fish are omnivorous but have specific dietary needs. A balanced diet of high-quality pellets, live or frozen foods (like bloodworms or brine shrimp), and occasional vegetable matter is recommended.
