Tiger Turquoise Discus

Overview: Discover the captivating beauty of the Tiger Turquoise Discus Cichlid, a stunning freshwater gem that adds an exotic touch to any aquarium. With its vibrant colors and distinctive patterns, this fish is a true showstopper, making it a prized choice for enthusiasts seeking elegance in their aquatic showcase.

Origin: Hailing from the South American Amazon River basin, the Tiger Turquoise Discus Cichlid thrives in slow-moving, warm waters. Their natural habitat consists of densely vegetated areas, providing inspiration for recreating an authentic environment in your aquarium.

Feeding: These discus cichlids are omnivores, enjoying a varied diet that includes high-quality flakes, pellets, frozen or live foods. Enhance their coloration with occasional treats of brine shrimp, bloodworms, and specially formulated discus pellets to ensure a balanced and nutritious diet.

Tank Mates: Known for their peaceful demeanor, Tiger Turquoise Discus Cichlids thrive in a community of similar-sized, non-aggressive fish. Consider companions like tetras, angelfish, or other peaceful cichlid species to create a harmonious and visually stunning aquarium.

Aggression: While generally peaceful, these discus cichlids may display territorial behavior during breeding or if their space feels threatened. Providing adequate hiding spots and maintaining a spacious tank can help reduce potential conflicts.

Experience Level: Ideal for intermediate to advanced aquarists, the Tiger Turquoise Discus Cichlid requires attention to water quality and a stable environment. Regular water changes, proper filtration, and a well-balanced diet contribute to their overall well-being.

Water Parameters: Maintain a temperature range of 82-88°F (28-31°C) and a pH level between 6.0 and 7.5. Soft, slightly acidic water mimics their natural habitat conditions, promoting optimal health and vibrant coloration.
