Hiya..... we have had our discus for about 5 months and one has started to get Pop eye? what can i do about this.
Yesterday i did a water change as the amonia in the tank was sky high..... what is the required amonia level? and how would i get it down, doing water changes at least twise a week.... and the tank is a 400L....
Can anyone help? :wacko:
Thanks
Rhianna and Ryan
The required ammonia level is 0...........you will need to water change water change and more water change.................or go out an buy a polyfilter , which will remove the ammonia and any nasties in 12-24 hrs
Let us know how you get on
Hello & welcome to the forum
Discus are not happy with any Ammonia at all.
WC as Sid has said but wondering whats causing the ammonia.
Sounds like something to do with your filter.
Some more info would be good
Over feeding , and over cleaning of the filter can lead to filter crash, causing ammonia................it will take ambe 2 weeks for the fish to recover.............oh by the way , what size are the fish?
