Was fortunate to visit this facility for the first time earlier in the week. INCREDIBLE knowledge, care for discus and quality. ALSO, someone who, in spite of fame, hasn't let it go to his head. Very willing to take his time
Jack Wattley has been in Germany at 2006 or 2007 on Discus Championship in Duisburg, I saw him walking around because my instructor told me that JW is here. My Instructor told me some things about him before so I was somehow proud to see him live. I cared Discus for 8 years, switched to saltwater tanks but discus trigger me all times i see big ones at YT. Thanks for all these insider information about care and breeding. Greetings from Germany!
Those fish are beautiful. Your channel is a fountain of knowledge for discus keepers. Thank you very much for your work for the hobby and for sharing the experience.
No dejo de decírmelo, aún sin saber inglés, los vídeos son tan buenos y están tan bien explicados qué los disfruto un montón. No me queda más que decirte gracias por tu trabajo. Un saludo desde España
Your most welcome.... For years I have been wanting to visit - I am about an hour north of you - but gotta have the right aquarium before I ever consider keeping any of these beautiful creatures....my community tank is too busy for such graceful fish.....
Your fish are the best. I'm from canada and I'd rather have your fish than anyones up here. Keep up the good work, and keep the videos rolling lol cheers.
Just bought the discus food you highly recommended! Original from Poland “Tropical” food d50 plus! Fish are going crazy for it!! Thanks for a great recommendation!!
Gabriel thank you for awesome videos. However I am and I believe many people are still waiting video about irrigation pipe which covers overflow. When will you upload video about it? Thanks!
hi thanks for this vidéo , i m from France , didn't have the money to restart a project with discus , but it's a pleasur to see them on your channel , i remember the time where i did it , it was a pleasure all the time , but when i have to move home for an another home , a fish seller it's busy with my fish .... the second day when i m come to see my fish all are died .. then i stop all ... was so sad , but the passion is all the time in the heart ;) thank you so much for your vidéo , blue thumb and suscribe to your channel , thank you have a long days whith your channel.
Thanks for geinune video gabe👍 1. Instead of acriflavin shall I use potassium permanganate, hope both have same action? 2. Adding this much salt will increase tds does it harm discus? And how many days you continue (you add) acriflavin and salt? And I plan to quarantine my new discus in this way (gabe way)
No PP will burn on any open wounds. Acryflavin is much better. It will not burn and will heal the wounds. Also salt is added only once beneficial for mucus production to cover up open wounds as well. These remedies are used primarily during the receipt of new stock.
Would love to see more new and frequent videos from your channel even just Hatchery updates I'd watch a video every day of you walking around your amazing place
Always love watching your videos your fish are absolutely beautiful. I had some peacocks couldn’t stand the fighting the bullying so I went to discus knock on wood for the last five or six weeks everything’s been going good and I come to your channel to get any tips
Dropping the water level in the tank to about 50% will bring them around immediately and you won't have any more problems with them! Give them a half-hour and fill your tank back up.
Sir Gabe, thank you for the information provided so far, it's very helpful. I have a difficult problem, discus' parents always eat their children when they start swimming. What is the solution to overcome this problem?
Hello ! It is interesting to watch your programs but I do not understand your language. Please write what you added to the water to the fish. I realized that it was salt and what else was there? And does this affect the bacteria in the filter?
Great video once again! Gabe i have few questions! Is acriflavine safe for good bacteria in filter media ? How you manage nitrates in high stock tanks other than water change ?
Do you know which med trio I should use when I first get wild caught discus that are available on i Europe? Like on if they have it on Amazon UK II can buy it, from chemicals from Amazon U.S.A, they say no shipping to Sweden. I ahve used Eisha Hexamita, Eisha NDX and Eisha 2000. But if I buy 14 Discus that costs 450 dollar per fish, Royal Green Tefe Adults straight from the wild. I want to be sure... API General cure, is that really enough? And I am not even sure I can get that anymore... Or would you reccomend me to buy Axelrodi F1. Those are bred in captivity, but then they are 1,5 inch fish. All I here is buy as big as you can afford. Thanks in advance. No rush, but when you have time, please answer this question for me. Best Regards.
Jack Wattley Discus Keep them coming. I keep a 74 gallon with a sump added, of hybrids with 7 discus. Hoping to one day set up a black water wild tank. Love learning from you on all levels!
No entendí ni papa pero veo el video pq eres un caballo en este mundo de los discos gracias a ti muchos tenemos estos hermosos animales en casa un saludo gabriel
Hello sir, great video and great info ! Thank you so much. Sir one question, how long we have to put acacriflavine and how much water to change daily? Thank you
@@JackWattleyDiscus hello, I have a question I have 6 wild discuss, of which 3 are chasing after the rest of my life, my aquarium is 500 liters, which could advise me if there is any advice for such behavior, all fish are 16 cm in size. I once heard such advice to buy more fish. Greetings from Poland
Great video! Q: I taught that ones you open the bag you need to move the fish out. Because the ph and ammonia go crazy? But you put the fish back to the bag, it will not burn they Gills?
Yeah Gabe I believe anything you say and have so much respect for old-timers like you that have experience and knowledge ,most importantly you don't have any problem sharing the knowledge and I think it's very clear how you genuinely want people to have success keeping discus!!!! No offense calling you a old-timer!!!!
Hi Gabe, beautiful fish. I would like to buy some Hekkels, but can't find them somewhere around. You said you ship all around the world. Can you ship to Kyrgyzstan?
Hi Gabe! Greetings again from the Cayman Islands. Any kind of brand and grade of acryflavin that you have been using? Is there a fish grade type of that med?
Hey, I got a quick question : I have no discus yet but I want to add some to my existing aquarium. I can manage to get all water parameters right, but I was told they would all die because discus would not be able to adapt to the existing pathogen of my aquarium. What if I put acryflavin in the water first? In my theory it would kill the existing pathogen and the new discus bring new pathogen to what the discus are used to?
Great video! I have a question btw, I have 6 discus and 3 angles in my tank and there's alot of pecking going on and it's really stressing out some of the smaller discus I believe. Is there anything I can do to lower the aggression in my tank?

I said the same thing a few days ago. What a legacy to carry on for all of these years.
Shout-out to Gabe to answering the questions on RUclips comments as well. Am humbled. All the best and keep spreading the knowledge.

That's not Mr Wattley. Mr Wattley has passed away.
I really like your approach to aquariums
All your fish are very beautiful and look healthy and happy the tanks are well maintained also job well done 👏
Thanks Karl

Could you explain what acriflavin used for and how often?
When u add to tank do you remove 24hrs?
Everything explained in the video
Do u remove through sump or dump water with acriflavin?
What type of salt do you use and is it fine or coarse salt pieces?
Thank you for replying
Gabe, what a fantastic video. I loved it. They were beautiful discus you got in. I wish I lived in the States, but I'm in Australia.

You guys are awesome! Great video’s! Thank you for sharing al your knowledge with us. 😃👍🏻
What a set up 😀😀👍👍👌
Wow, not a Discus guy, cichlids for me but, flip, those fish are awesome, can tell Gabe sure takes good care of them!
Beautiful work guys

Just subscribe loved your content I live close to Miami might have to come look at the shop keep up the great work
Thanks for taking the time to leave me a line. You are more than welcome.
Sir Gabe, thank you for the information provided so far, it's very helpful.
I have a difficult problem, discus' parents always eat their children when they start swimming.
What is the solution to overcome this problem?
You have to allow them to learn how to be proper parents.
Nice video. Would love another when you guys start shipping them out to see how they look.
Awesome.......................👍👍👍👍👍
Hello ! It is interesting to watch your programs but I do not understand your language. Please write what you added to the water to the fish. I realized that it was salt and what else was there? And does this affect the bacteria in the filter?
Acryflavin. But all videos are transcribed so you can read.
You have a lot of knowledge about Discus 🐠 & most remarkable thing that you are a good hobbits
What PH do you keep Heckle in at home
Great video!!
Thank you so much for your brillant Videos!!
Gabe, Thank's for a great video
Great video
GREAT VIDEO 👍😎
Great video once again! Gabe i have few questions! Is acriflavine safe for good bacteria in filter media ? How you manage nitrates in high stock tanks other than water change ?
We use acryflavin only in the quarantine tanks. For us massive water changes keeps the fish healthy. We are set up for that.
So exciting!

Without doubt the best thanks
loveeeee ittt...discussss..tnx...for amazvidio...
Hi..Jack...What kind of food of discus is given?...Which one as well is for coloring and which one is for making bigger for those discus'
You add this and change the colour water what is the name of this liquid
Powder. Acryflavin Neutral
Excellent Work ...
Perfect, what was the green substance name? Aqua***?
Acryflavin

@@seba5280 the more the merrier and.the less bickering.
Acryflavin Neutral

Great video! Q: I taught that ones you open the bag you need to move the fish out. Because the ph and ammonia go crazy? But you put the fish back to the bag, it will not burn they Gills?
pH is too low in transit to create true ammonia, besides we fast for a few days prior to shipping so no waste is created.
Mr.Gab what is accraflaming
Acryflavin is a mild antibiotic
Nice big tanks for the wild discus how much per pair?
www.wattleydiscus.com
@@JackWattleyDiscus thanks Jack and solid discus videos "D
I am also curious what is the exact name of this green substance Aqua .......?
Acriflavine. It's a topical antiseptic, prevents bacterial & fungal infections.
Master of Discus

Hi Gabe, is it possible to keep these guys in Broward County tap water that's more or less 7.4 PH?
He aggressively told me to subscribe.
You bet I did!
how long or how many days you keep the new discus in the acriflavine water?
Very good,amazing👍
Hi Gabe, beautiful fish. I would like to buy some Hekkels, but can't find them somewhere around. You said you ship all around the world. Can you ship to Kyrgyzstan?
$8000 in freight for 500 fish is $16 fish. Yikes.
That really puts things in perspective on how much the transportation of the fish adds too the cost.
Absolutely, plus $200.00 in Fish and Wildlife fees and customs charges. It adds up.
So my wallet hates you now... I just bought a 150 4x2x2.5. I am thinking it's time for me to get back into wilds. Will you be doing a wysiwyg?
@@tylergordon696 just for you will run a.sale next week 😉
You're not helping my wallet. I have about 2 months until I get my tank ready.
