Discus fish disease risks
Native from the Amazon River, yet successfully bred all over the world in aquariums,
discus fish are not too fragile or sensitive creatures.
However, all breeders should be aware
of the risks of discus fish disease, as they are often exposed to various health problems
because of improper care conditions.
Saying that breeders are most often the ones
responsible for the discus fish diseases doesn’t mean we’re pointing the finger, this is the
truth.
Improper care, poor or inadequate living conditions, co-inhabitance with other breeds
are usually responsible for the various discus fish diseases.
The most common discus fish diseases are the ones common to fresh water fish in general.
For instance the ammonia poisoning is a discus fish disease that appears because of
improper nitrogen cycle in your aquarium.
Don’t add tropical fish in the water until the
ammonia has been eliminated in the water, and maybe the filters don’t function properly.
