I am receiving my first Discus on Wednesday of next week. I'd like any advice anyone can give concerning acclimating them so that the transition is as easy and healthful on them as possible!

I have bred Angelfish for years so have a bit of knowledge under my belt, but this is my first Discus experience.

Any help appreciated! :)
Thanks!

welcome to the forum corky.

just put the bags in yor tank and let them float for a little while.
then put slowly water out of your tank into the bags,like a small
coffecup each time,take you time so it is easy for your fish.
when you dobled the water in the bag catch them out with a net,dont
put that water in you tank.

Looks like it's a similar situation as to acclimating Angels. Thanks for your reply!
