Hi all. As of now some of you all know that I recently used levamsole on my discus. Well it worked and I am currently waiting on my second treatment, which should be on tuesday or wednesday. After the trement it has been looking much better color wise and eating much better too. Now it seems like its color looks like a flat black and it is a turquoise. It still eats good though. Its color is much bettter though when it is in the front of the tank it looks alot better, I have 2 t-5s in the middle and a flourescent in the front. Water is just fine. Had another discus but it died.
Why could this be? Could it be from the fact it is the only discus and it is lonely?

Well the poo started brown but before it came of it was a very pale brown, I meant to say its color was dark.
