The Discus fish is a popular freshwater fish known for its vibrant colors and unique disc-shaped body. Native to the Amazon River basin in South America, these fish thrive in warm, soft, and acidic waters. They are social creatures, often found in groups, and require a well-maintained aquarium with plenty of plants and hiding spots. Discus fish can grow up to 8 inches in diameter and are known for their peaceful temperament, making them suitable for community tanks. They primarily feed on high-quality pellets, frozen foods, and live foods. Proper care and a stable environment are essential for their health and well-being.
