alright so *** pretty much convereted my entire 90 gal tank.
i have planted around 20 medium sized plants compatible with discus changed my rocky substrate with flourite and sand mixture measured all water paramaters after the change and a few weeks later. everything looks ok.
only problem i see is ph is around 8 steady. *** done alot of research and *** come to the comclusion that the discus will be ok as long as they aren't wild caught and the ph is steady.
the only concerns i have is because of the expensive of discus i don't plan on loosing any so....
does anyone see any issues with my setup? filtration is a cascade 300 (250gph HOB) and an eheim 2217. both very clean and brand new.
i plan to do weekly water changes at minimum if not twice a week around 25-50% each change.
lastly, i plan on including a school of cardinals and having a few cory cats and yoyo loaches to assist in the cleaning duties. should i add these fish first or throw them all in at the same time?
