Hi JazzyJeff,

What temperature do keep your water at to keep the Discus happy without boiling the plants.

Cheers,

Steve

Looking at the OP's profile, JJ hasn't been on the site since May 2014 (but does have a homepage listed so you might contact through that)

28'C - 29'C for me. I live in the tropics where afternoon temps regularly reach 31-32'C indoors. I use fans to cool down the water, it's usually at 29'C. If my discus fall sick, I switch off the fans and the temp goes up to 30-31'C for a few days.

Hi, love the tank! I'm setting up a new 350 litre planted discus tank, do you have any recommendation for a good substrate that works with the discus?

Thanks

Well done! Really nice tank.

That tank is amazing. Pretty similar to what I'm hoping to achieve with my new tank. Love the whole set up. Does it have a sump?

Nice to see the good old fashioned Mercury Vapour Lamps, always one of my favourites and very pleasing on the eye in my view. Looks great.
