will discus be stressed if they are on their own?
what will stress them?

 

[cheesy feet]

Yeah, they live in large groups in the wild and are a shoaling fish, when on there own they will often go of eating, become skittish and sit in the corner of the tank.When this happens they become more susceptible to illnesses so go down hill from there.
