Cold water change

[jacksta]

Hey folks,

I've heard is it true that cold water changes are good for Discus,but i thoguht it woudl be too unstaple? Does 20% of water change every secodn day sound good and that Discus woudl grow fast?

cheers,jack

yes the more changes the better im not shore that they should be all cold i warm my water but some times if its a hot day i dont bother and the water is a few degrees colder but some one my feel diffrent to me so that is just my opinion

a good rule is that the difference between the tank water and the fresh water is no more than 3F if you are doing large water change.

Someone said that when trying to get the discus in breeding mode, you may want to add cold water to the tank.

I would not do that every time I change water for sure.
