Wild ROYAL Discus Nature Aquarium of 200x60x70cm at Twinstar EU

Wild Royal Discus H&C Nature Aquarium of 200x60x70cm at Twinstar EU headquarters in Portugal.

Layout and aquarium were designed specifically for the Discus, less hardscape and more empty area to give space for the Discus to swim. Plants are not yet at their best shape but as soon they grow, they will fill some areas and leave shadow for them.

From the day it was scaped till the date when Discus were added, we have 3 weeks of cycle to avoid any issues. Discus have been in quarantine for one month at A Casa dos Discus in Lisbon to prevent diseases and give us time to build and have the layout proper cycled to add them.

AQUARIUM has 200x60x70cm with 5cm all round the top for protection, made by ILA in 15mm optiwhite glass.

Lighting system: 4x Twinstar 120b

Filtration is done by 2x OASE BIOMASTER 850 Thermo filter, plus one Eheim 350 skimmer to clean the surface.

Substrate no branded (later will be sold by Strideways), root tabs and ADA Colorado sand in the front.

Hardscape: Entwood and black lava stone glued with OASE Foamfix

CO2: Twinstar L diffuser and Strideways pressure reducer 2bps

Temperature: 26° C

Plants from Aquaflora:
Anubias barteri var. nana, Anubias barteri var. nana 'Mini', Anubias barteri var. nana 'Paxing', Helanthium bolivianum 'Magdalenensis', Helanthium tenellum, Hygrophila pinnatifida, Cryptocoryne parva, Cryptocoryne pygmaea, Cryptocoryne albida (costata), Cryptocoryne x willisii, Cryptocoryne usteriana, Echinodorus 'Rosé', Echinodorus 'Tricolor', Echinodorus uruguayensis, Juncus repens, Potamogeton gayi and Schismatoglottis prietoi.
