I have now into 3 mths of min water change ...
Keeping Discus ....
They all look ok and I maint a good GH , KH and PH , CL is also good. I test NO2 and NO3 and found that NO3 is high . I guess due to no WC. How can I nuetralise the NO3 without casuing harm to the Discuss? I scare to WC as now all growing well .... not sure should I touch the water condition or not... What to add into the water to prevent both external and internal fish bacteria and diseases?? |

Discus keeper usually practice large volume of WC frequently for them to thrive. Some even 95% WC daily, this helps in the growth rate.

 I did not do much WC since early Nov 2014... coming 3 mths .. Every day I will take out about 2 to 3 litres of water including the waste below the tank .. after that will add PH /KH / GH salt + vitamin + nitrate/ammonia solution and topup to the water that I took out . |

If conditions are good, the more water change done, the faster they grow so don't be afraid to do bigger water change.
