Blue Discus 15 to 20 cm

Size and Lifespan This discus grows to 20 cm, with a wide, disc shape. Moreover, it lives 8–12 years under optimal care. Thus, high temperatures and clean water ensure longevity. Regular checks keep it thriving. Ideal Tank Setup The discus prospers in a 200-litre tank with weak flow and soft sediment. Furthermore, plants and driftwood offer shade and safety. Its broad body avoids currents, so use spray bars and safe vertical wood. To replicate its natural habitat: Add Amazon swords for oxygen supply. Position driftwood to diffuse flow. Choose fine sand substrate for foraging. Fit a quality heater for 28–31°C.
