The tank is about 300 lt, water is very sweet, about 100, 110 microsiemens, ph about 5,5 (I don't want to get it less it's too dangerous if I'm out for work) and I use an external filter for the new water charget with only torb.
For the tank 2 filters, 1 internal, only with siporax, 1 external, eheim, with siporax and water cross it very slowly..doing it the no3 are always low. Tempareture now 30° but with the time I'll take at maximum 28°. It depends from discus health. The sand is like Rio negro sand, (it was) white and like powder, and discus appreciate a lot.
To clean it is a trouble but usually it's always clean.
Always sorry: is strange to be unable to find correct words to express it

thanks you for making an effort to show us your fish.

Please feel free to post as many pictures as you want.


Can you tell me the actual size dimensions of that tank? Also did you buy that sand it looks fantastic!

Do you also use special lights?

[Ginko]

The size is about 121 cm X 50 X 60.
The sand is 5 cm in the highest point.
The lights are Dennerle: behind a light neon dennerle "congo light" for 4.000 kelvin and front a 38w for 6.000 kelvin, trocal de luxe amazon day.
The best couple of lights for plants and discus that usually hate the daylight.
The water is simply crystal-brown.
