Discus And Angelfish

[nicky b]

hey, i wanted to know what temp would you keep discus at if they was in a tank with Angelfish, i have saw a lot of discus in with Angelfish but don't discus need water tamps of 30C/86F and to me that would be to worm for Angelfish so if you wanted to keep Angelfish in with your discus would you have the water tamps at around 28C ?

Angels will handle discus temperatures without a problem. The problem occurs with feeding, angels gobble like pigs, discus graze quite a bit more.

In the wild angels and discus live together. The one exception are Altum angels which live in rivers where there are no discus.

When feeding make sure the food is spread evenly, so that each fish get it's share. I have a tank with both angel and discus and going fine

Ok i will make sure i do that its a good job you told me because i would of just put the good in one spot for them thinking the filtr output would push the food around and even it self out
