Discus fish

The term Discus came about due to the flat, circular “disk” shape of this fish. Just like other cichlids, Discus are extremely intelligent and personable.
Discus Fish are a popular freshwater fish known for their stunning colors. For a beginner it’s important to understand their care requirements, including tank size, compatible species, and diet.
Discus are a schooling fish and need to be kept with at least five friends. In fact, they do better with even more companions. But six discus per home aquarium is a good minimum.
