    🔴 Red Cover Discus Fish | Rare

    Full Coverage Red, Pure Discus Power

    The Red Cover Discus Fish is a rare and highly sought-after discus variety prized for its heavy, near-solid red coloration that blankets the body with intense warmth and richness. Unlike patterned strains, Red Cover Discus focus on saturation and depth—delivering a bold, commanding presence that instantly stands out in any aquarium.

    This variety showcases thick red pigment extending from face to tail, often with minimal spotting or interruption, creating a clean and powerful visual profile. Under proper lighting and pristine water conditions, the red tones glow with exceptional vibrancy and depth.

    Each Red Cover Discus is hand-selected from trusted top-tier growers for strong round body shape, smooth fin structure, and excellent overall health. Whether you’re curating a show tank or building a premium red-themed discus collection, this rare strain offers unmatched impact.

    Water Parameter

    Easy-to-Understand Water Parameters for Discus Fish

    • 🌡️ Temperature: Keep it warm, around 82–88°F (28–31°C). They love tropical vibes!
    • 🧪 pH Level: Slightly acidic water is best, between 6.0–7.0.
    • 💧 Water Hardness: Soft water is ideal, aim for 1–8 dGH.
    • 🚫 Ammonia and Nitrites: Both should always be at 0 ppm. These are toxic to your fish.
    • Nitrates: Keep it low, below 20 ppm. Regular water changes help with this.
    • 🔄 Water Changes: Do a 25–50% water change every week to keep their home fresh and clean.
    • 🌀 Filtration: Use a good filter to keep the water crystal clear and healthy.
    • 🌬️ Oxygen Levels: Make sure the water is well-oxygenated with good surface movement.
    • 🐟 Tank Size: They need space to swim. A 55-gallon tank is the minimum for a group of 5–6.
    • 💡 Lighting: Go for soft, low-to-moderate lighting to make them feel at home.
    • 🪨 Substrate: Use soft sand or smooth gravel—no sharp edges!
    • 🌿 Plants: Add live plants for a natural feel and to help keep the water clean.

    Discus are picky but worth the effort—just keep their water clean and cozy!

    Direction

    How to Acclimate Discus Fish - Step by Step 🐠

    Prepare the Aquarium 🛠️
    Set up a clean, fully cycled tank with the correct water parameters: temperature (82-86°F), pH (6.0-7.5), and soft water. Turn off tank lights to reduce stress.

    Float the Bag 🌡️
    Place the sealed bag with the discus in the tank for 15-20 minutes to match the temperature.

    Open the Bag ✂️
    Gently open the bag and roll down its edges to let it float. Add a small amount of tank water (about 1 cup) into the bag every 5-10 minutes.

    Repeat Gradual Water Mixing 💧
    Continue adding tank water to the bag in small amounts for 30-60 minutes. This helps the discus adjust to water chemistry differences.

    Release the Fish 🐟
    Use a net to transfer the discus from the bag to the tank. Avoid adding bag water into your aquarium to prevent contamination.

    Observe and Monitor 👀
    Watch the discus closely for signs of stress. Allow them to settle for a few hours before feeding.

    Maintain a Calm Environment 🕊️
    Keep the lights dim and minimize noise or movement around the tank for the first day.

    By following these steps, your discus fish will settle smoothly and thrive in their new home! 🌿
