Red Turquoise Discus
Also known as Ruskokiekkokala (Finland), Scheibenbarsch (Germany), or Diskusfisk (Sweden).
The body of the Discus is round and laterally compressed, an unusual characteristic of the Cichlidae family which makes it suitable for gliding through tall aquarium grasses. Discus are vibrantly colored with vertical or horizontal stripes. Needs plenty of hiding spots especially tall live plants.
These fish require special attention, needing low lighting and soft water. Dark substrate will also reduce the amount of light reflected around the tank. Water conditioner or Reverse Osmosis Filtration to soften the water is highly recommended.
