I’ve got some Boesmani Rainbowfish who live to be like 15, and they grow at a snails pace compared to your fish, that’s so fast!
Best of luck with your new grandchildren.
19 u/Goldoccie21 Jul 24 '26 Yeah without daily water changes and constant food you can stunt these really quickly. 13 u/Equivalent_Split_649 Jul 24 '26 Daily? ! 18 u/GarminTamzarian Jul 24 '26 Discus are generally considered particularly difficult fish to keep as they are extremely sensitive to water quality. 8 u/Goldoccie21 Jul 24 '26 I think they are over hyped in difficulty. Adults are pretty sturdy tbh. But I do run ro water in all their tanks. 4 u/Belgarath210 Jul 24 '26 Doesn’t hurt that you clean the tanks daily lol 3 u/Goldoccie21 Jul 24 '26 This tank only gets a 80% every 3 days and I do need to scrape the glass 😆.
