- Phase Two of Cichlid Bros continues today with Troy's basement aquariums. In this video, he unboxes the new discus fish for the 90 gallon aquarium!
This new aquascape will be for a discus tank setup. I went with sand, driftwood, rocks, and plenty of live plants.

![AMAZING DISCUS FISH BREEDER!! [Tour]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/uyiZaIpJnE8/mqdefault.jpg)
I have rummy nose, cardinal tetra, german rams, rainbow, and corys. Everybody friendly. Enjoy
You are absolutely right when saying keeping discus are NOT what people claim online as I am raising a pair now (over a year from 2.5-3") 6 inches in a 30 gal hexagon tank. I had them in a 55 gal. with Black Angels, Serpae tetras, Brick red swordtails, synodontis, pleco & yoyo loach until they started laying eggs. I water change 50% every two weeks (unlike whats online) & NEVER have fed them beef hearts but lots of bloodworms & brine shrimp along with flakes/pellets. GREAT VIDEOS from the Cichlid Bros, I wish you guys would consider opening a HUGE Cichlid store here in the Chicagoland (suburban) area.
Awesome. That would be a dream someday!
I agree.. im in the suburbs and would love to find quality cichlids..
YAY!!! FINALLY!!!! I have been waiting for this for so long!!! DISCUS from the CICHLID BROS!!! LOVE ITTTTTTT!!!!!
Thanks for waiting patiently!
I can just imagine your stomach sinking seeing that one lay on the substrate. They can be pretty dramatic and will do that when stressed. I’d say add some type of schooling fish like rummy nose tetras maybe 10-15.
Bristle Nose Pleco and a school of Cardinal Tetras would be a beautiful addition to this tank.
I like those ideas
Glad to see the little dude pull through! Tanks looking great mate👌🏻
Thanks man! Excited to have them
Planning on doing nearly the same thing - 6 discus in a 90 gallon. I'm planning on keeping them with a school of rummy nose, some corys and a couple o blue rams!
Sounds great!
Beautiful. I recommend adding rummy nose tetra or cardinal tetra or both to help them feel more relaxed and add some variety as well as cory cats. That's what I have in my discus set up and they look stunning. Looks great
The discus look great, can't wait for the updates on them. I'm glad that one made it I was worried you were going to get up and it would be dead ,but you did a great job. keep us informed thanks
Thank you, will do!
Wow, I’m glad to see the one discus pull through. I don’t think I could have watched if you said he didn’t make it. I love these fish.
i’m so happy the discus made it! the melon ones are a beautiful color!
Those melon Discus are stunning!! Glad they all pulled through. Great addition for the tank would be a school of Golden Pencil fish
I would 100% start with adding maybe a pleco something cool like a blue phantom or a school of corys to keep the sand clean of extra food
Add like 10 Cory’s and a bristnose pleco and maybe some kind of schooling fish. I’m so happy to finally see the discus you got! Thanks for the video!
Oh how beautiful! Great choices and so glad the little guy pulled through. Great vid thank you
Thank you, appreciate it!
The sign. Looks great. 🐠. Adds to the room 👋✅
Thank you!
The discus look incredible! Very excited for you.
Thank you!
Dat logo sign 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Now u make me want to start a discuss aquarium absolutely beautiful fish/aquascape 🥃🥃🥃🥃🥃
Thank you!
Haven't seen many melon Discus, pretty cool. And the turquoise ones got nice patterns popping through
Love the new sign
The blue tiger are 🔥
The Logo looks great💪💪💪
Discus from Jack get better soon. After aclimatization they will be beautiful 👍
Thank you! Looking forward to it!
Your new discus are absolutely beautiful.
Thank you!
I really love the neon blue ones, my dads tank would always have a few of them when we had our tank. We always kept 2-3 discus, 2-3 angel and a few clown loaches
Beautiful!! So happy that the one was actually fine, just having a drama moment! When I received my discus, one of them did the same thing, I was sure it wouldn't make it, almost a year later he's the tank boss!😆
That is awesome! Glad he’s okay too!
Beautiful! We got our Discus in April 2022 at 2.5 inches, they grow super fast they are now about 5-6 inches. As for tank mates.
Lemon Tetra
Siamese Algae Eaters
Sterbia Corydora
Cardinal Tetra
just to name a few.
Love it
Dannng bro you lucked out. All 6 of these are beautiful!
awssome video.. keep up the good work:-]
Thanks for watching!
Rummy nose tetra would be a great addition with your discus. Once settled in the cherry coloration will pop if water quality is spot on. They will school and be perfect dither fish. Chester will also enjoy watching them.👍
Agreed on all of this!
heck yeah. I'm old school so definitely cardinal tetras and some kind of cory cats. perfection
Glad to see that one pull through! I’m sure you will add some schooling fish, but you could also add some German blue rams as they like the same temperature.
Great Choice with Watley….Gabe has really nice fish🤩 Tiger Turquoise are absolutely beautiful! I’d say let’s get some Rummy Nose in there in a few weeks 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks, Sean! I’m sure we’ll discuss 👊🏻👊🏻
They look great !!!
Thanks!
Awesome choice! A nice big school of rummy nose would look great with the discus
Thanks! Noted 📝
Gabe Posada of Jack Wattley Discus has a video explaining that the behavior you witnessed with one of Melons isn't unusual. Glad you had the patience to let the little guy get his bearings.
Love the sign and the discus!
Thanks Tanya!
Welcome to the wonderful world of discus hope they stay healthy and happy for you 👏🏻
Loving the new Discus & Tank.
Thanks man!
Red line sharks would be pretty cool
Having been in the saltwater side of the hobby for about 20 years I eventually learned the value of darkness on initial acclimation. My acclimation tanks are in my basement and depending on how stressed the fish look I will leave them in total darkness for 12-24 hours. Beautiful Discus!
Congo tetras, pearl gouramis, good tank mates for discus.
Just beautiful fish! So glad the one pulled through.
Thank you!
Such a beautiful setup.
Great work!!
Thanks a lot!
Add some cardinal and rummy nose tetras. Definitely some cory cats as well.
Very good fishes and tank is also setup nicely. You can add red geophagus. They eat from bottom and digging from sand so no more wastage will remain in bottom
Jack wattley has the best Discus! We’ve got 12 of them love them so much
👊🏻👊🏻
@@CichlidBros best of luck to your new fish and tank! Looks amazing
And btw what are your tank parameters?
Wow, really beautiful fish. I'm very glad that one made it. Having never kept discus in my life, i know almost nothing about how to properly keep them. I've heard a lot about jack well I'd say what I've heard looks to be correct, top notch. Well, I'd say this tank and the beauty of the fish also is a total success. I love it! Take care, brother.
Thank you, really appreciate it!
rummynose raspboras will be amazing tank mate, making your discuss feel way more safer at their environment. I would also add some school of cory's like Ambiacus or Brochis which can help to stir up the mulm in your sand making it easier to maintain the clean look of your substrate.
Get some blue rams and a nice geo eartheater! Awesome tank mates mine all get along great
The discus look awesome! Waiting on my custom aquarium so I can set up my first discus tank. Can’t wait!
Awesome, good luck!
Like that neon logo
Thanks!
So happy that the first guy made it out ✌️✌️ and you would have taken a good care of him to get better. Great job bro 👏👏
If interested, please try Angelfish for tank mates and below are some of my favourites..
Altum Angel, Platinum Angel or Sunset Angel...
Thank you! Great ideas
Bro, I would definitely recommend some rainbows with your discus fish. As they really complement the discus and are a great tank mate for them.
Beautiful fish! I just got my first cichlids (convicts) about 10 minutes ago! They are acclimating as I type and I am super exited!
Very nice! Thanks for watching and best of luck with the new fish 🤙🏼
You will eventually get tons of babies!
You're completely right it's not really that hard to keep discus to be honest it's pretty easy,, but well I really really think you just need to put a whole bunch of rummy nose with some corydoras , so the rummy nose tetras will tell you when the water is in good condition bcuz when their nose i really red that means the water is condition ,,, thanks for sharing I can't wait until you make more videos of this awesome fish 👍👍💯
I'm geting redy to take a chance with Discus fish. Thanks for sharing.
Good luck!
One of my dream fish from jack wattley are Altum angelfish which do pretty well with discus . Your tank looks great
Looks terrfic, you can add plenty of tetras to boost your tank look 😍😍
Idk how well they work together but since they both like warm water maybe some German or electric blue rams
Festivums would be an interesting tankmate.
Very true
Dang ! What a sight glad that one pulled through they look amazing bro! 🤙🏾🤩🔥
Thank you, appreciate it 👊🏻👊🏻
The tank and the fish look great.👌
Thank you!
Your tanks look amazing, put some serpa tetras ,your fan mg
Great video thanks
Fantastic new tank. Even though it's smaller, it might turn out to be your best display tank.
For bottom feeders a bunch of Cory's or bristlenose and for general stocking a school of rummynose tetras would compliment the discus. Could also add a single angel or neon blue acara.
Thank you! 📝
Cardinals and rams for tank mates. Maybe even some Cody’s on the ground!
Love the ideas
In terms of tank mates you should go with a huge group of Cardinal or rummy nose tetras and then a bunch of corydoras for the bottom.
✍🏼✍🏼✍🏼
What a nice tank
Thank you!
I am a big Cichlid fan and have had multiple Cichlid tanks going back 30 years when I worked at an aquarium store in high school. My favorite fish is a Datnoid and have always had one in one of my Cichlid tanks. I would recommend adding one of these to your tanks. Great fish with a lot of personality with Cichlid traits. Same diet but has a slow growth rate. Peaceful towards other fishes unless someone bothers it.
Nice! Now, just put a bunch of tetra neons in there, and it will be amazing!
It will be awesome!!!
Great ideas
hello i'm from Malaysia..i'm always watch your video.. thanks for advice and information about fishkeeping cichlid and discus.. I hope next time your can improve and make for more information about fishkeeping
Thanks for watching!
Cory catfish or Angelfish in my opinion would make great tank mates. Great video and content
Man that tiger turquoise looks stunning 🎉
Thank you!
Tank and fish look great! I would add a nice school of Rummynose Tetras. That would look really nice
Thanks! Definitely was on the list of potential choices 👍🏻
You could try some Rams or Apistogramas.
beautiful. looks good with theses fish.
Thanks!
Rummy nose worked well for me and can handle the temps
Its fun breeding discus, If they have fry they maybe a rainbow pattern. The aquascape need plants and rocks added ,the middle front, and some drift wood .Happy new year,2023.. can also add a school of top swimmers.
Gorgious
They’re so pretty
A school of rummy nose would be great 👍
Beautiful tank!! Some German Blue Rams and Bolivian Rams would look nice with the Discus.
So beautiful!
Thanks!
I got neons, congos, and long fins with my discus with some Cory’s and everything is great I agree about keeping discus just need to keep that tds in check and water changes, with an established tank and rock on
Glad to see they are all doing great. I also have a 90G discus tank. I have stendker discus from Hans. I would suggest a school of Lemon tetras. I saw them in a George farm video and they look amazing.
Awesome. Noted, and thanks for watching!
More discus!
Looks like you’ll be gravel vacuuming, it’s the only problem I have with keeping my angels. I recommend the Cardinal tetra!!!
👍🏻👍🏻
Another 10_15 discus 👊👊
Columbian or Red eyed tetras as they grow a bit larger for your big tank, a group of corydoras and a few bristlenoses would look awesome in this big tank.
I think German rams and angel fish, some neon tetras. My ideal dream community tank. 👍
wonderful...♥ Discus♥
Wow 😍
Simply add 20-25 neon or cardinal tetras and your tank would be awesome. Add some cory catfish too.
✍🏼✍🏼✍🏼
Those fish are so beautiful and congratulations on the discus fish. You could put some angel fish in with the discus or maybe Buenos Aires tetras. I am not sure how warm the water needs to be. Harlequin Rasboras are beautiful fish with the black and red. I have 6 in my 20 gal. Appreciate the video I can't wait to see how it all turns out.
Very normal that discus lay on their side when added to a tank from a shipping bag. It's because of the pressure difference between shipping bag water volume and tank water volume no sickness. Love the reds 👍
Yep. Was just worried because it was struggling in the bag as well. Thanks for watching!
Looks so beautiful! You could plan to add more plants like vals or swords at the back, then rummynose or neons or harlequin rasboras would be awesome. Else go with rams or apistogramma, few Congo tetras or rainbows, panda cory or sterbai. Looking forward to the discus community tank
Great discus, jack watley good choice!! If u get more ,just get two more and from jackwatley don't get from anywhere else so u don't cross, then check hardness if too hard get hma filter doesn't cost a lot but it will soften water a little more, and change water every week with a python easy peasy!! If u want them to grow and feed them three times a day!! I use to grow them
Nice!
Corys and Tetras go well with discus!
✍🏼✍🏼✍🏼
Splendid 💖
Thanks!
