    What is the best for your discus?? I alway thought of changing the food and giving them alternative something much better. Now your chance to speak for them.

    That's a good poll.

    I use a mainly beef heart mix of my own making, with prawns, white fish fillets, salmon, green vegetable matter, garlic, vitamins and spirulina added. All minced thoroughly, and frozen till needed.

    But I also feed brine shrimp, blood worms, and tetra colour bits too. :P
    Thirty-five years keeping and breeding discus, and I'm still learning :P
