Inhaltsangabe

The Discus (scientifically known as Symphysodon) is a genus from the Cichlidae family. The Discus is a freshwater fish that is native to the Amazon river basin. The Discus thrives in the Neotropical rivers and floodplain lakes of the Amazon. However the Discus can now be found in every continent of the world due to their popularity in the home aquarium trade. All Symphysodon species have a latterly compressed body in a similar fashion to the latterly compressed bodies of the Cichlids. However, unlike the Cichlid, the Discus has no extended finnage which gives their bodies the rounded shape that inspires their name. It is a very common misconception that Discus are hard to keep as pets but Discus have proven over time that they are incredibly robust, hardy and relatively easy fish to keep.

Before purchasing any fish it is important to understand that as a fish owner you are responsible for the care and wellbeing of your fish. It is important to try and learn as much as you can about the fish you are considering to keep. You need to make sure that your lifestyle, household and financial status are suited to provide your fish with the best possible care. This guide has been designed to provide you with both precise and concise information about a Discus’s basic needs to help you provide your fish with the best quality care and aquarium practices. This guide also goes into the benefits of cycling, having a decent filtration system, plants and how to plant them.
