I have now got 3, 4" discus, 2 blue turq and an orange pigeon blood, along with a few cardinal tetras, they are in a 30g at the moment but should be soon moved to my 45g (or larger if i can find some spare cash), they immediately tried to hide behind the heater in the corner (despite there being half a pot placed in the tank for this purpose), anyway, a few hours later and they are swimming round and have gained some colour.

they are being kept in around 85% Ro water.

I have a question, will half a terracotta Pot mess with the PH ?? thanks.

No terracotta pots do not affect water at all ...

I have had up to 6 pots in a 55g tank at one time with no affect on water chemistry at all .... :wink:

You will also find that discus do not hide in pots, they will prefer ti take shelter in plants or behind something .... :)
