hi all,

planning on putting in a pair of BNs and a pair or corys in with my discus tomorrow, pH around 6.0, temp at 30* - do either of these fish have any special needs that i should be aware of??

Do you have gravel in your tank?
Corydoras like gravel to dig around in.

Some sucker mouth fish like to feed on discus slime coat but I don't have this problem.
I have had Albino bn with discus for several years. BB tank with plants on wood.
I know when the bn have fry because the discus guard the entrance to the cave to make sure any escapees don't get back in. :!:
hth, Dave

ended up being enticed by a pair of kuhli loaches, theyre such cool looking fish and when i had bns in with discus a few years back they used to latch on for the slime coat...fingers crossed these guys will be ok

Bn's and Corys are fantastic with discus, you wont have any probs.
