Description

Red Snakeskin Discus

Originating from the pristine waters of the Amazon River basin in South America, this captivating fish boasts a vibrant red hue accented with a mesmerizing snakeskin pattern, making it a true jewel in any aquarium.

Feeding your Red Snakeskin Discus is a breeze as they readily accept high-quality flake, pellet, and frozen foods. Their omnivorous appetite ensures a varied diet for optimal health and coloration. Keep their meals frequent but moderate, maintaining a balance between protein and plant-based offerings.

Known for their peaceful demeanor, these Discus Cichlids thrive in community tanks with other calm species. Optimal tank mates include angelfish, tetras, and peaceful bottom-dwellers. Keep in mind that a spacious aquarium with soft, acidic water is ideal for these majestic creatures.

Despite their serene nature, it’s essential to note that Red Snakeskin Discus Cichlids can be territorial during breeding periods. Providing adequate hiding spots and maintaining a well-structured tank layout will help alleviate potential conflicts.

Suitable for intermediate to advanced hobbyists, the Red Snakeskin Discus Cichlid requires a watchful eye and attention to water quality. Maintain a temperature range of 82-88°F (28-31°C), pH levels between 6.0-7.0, and soft to moderately hard water. Diligent care in maintaining these parameters will ensure the longevity and vibrancy of your aquatic gem.
