Hey all, i'm new to discus, had my tank going for abotu 3 months, slowly stocking it with tetras b4 getting my discus. I just want to know what i have to do to my water from it coming out of the tap to being able to put discus in the tank. I was advised by my LFS to get Seachem's Discus Buffer. is the the best stuff? is there a cheaper option or something better? also i currently have only been doing pH checks what other test kits should i get for when i have discus?

i realy just need an idiots guide to the water requirements of Discus and how to get it to that point form my tap.

Thanks
Nic

p.s. i've looked on the web everywhere but nothing covers what i want to know

What are the parameters of both your tank water and your tap water?

What is your location?
