  • This movie covers about 12 hours total, from 2pm till 2am
    Putting the Discus in the tanks:
    This is called "the drop & plop" way, our water is very close to the quality of water they come from. Many moons ago we did the "drip" method. The Discus are too long in the dirty shipping water, we always lost more Discus as we wanted. The way we do it now has NO LOST AT ALL so we must do something right lol lol
    On temp. difference:
    Temp is very close bags to tanks. In winter time I bring the temp in the rack down with cold water a few degrees and slowly let it heat up again.

    Thank you, Hans! Excellent great video! Wonderful fishes. Good job, Hans! Please inform in your video, that you have check the temperature and water parameter for the new fish before you put them in your tank. Congratulation!
    Die Temperatur wurde schon vor Ankunft der Tiere in den Aquarien heruntergefahren und so optimal auf die Fische vorbereitet. Da unsere Wasserparameter Discus Hans bekannt sind, wurden auch die Wasserwerte schon im Vorfeld angeglichen. Daher brauchte weder ein Temperaturangleich, noch ein Wasserangleich gemacht werden.

    Hans, you are a hard working Man with the nicest looking Discus to show for it! I have several of yours in my tank that are GORGEOUS!

    Hope all is running smooth at the shop. I have a question regarding your set up and it'll be great to hear from you.
    What size tanks do you use? Pairs? Grow out Tanks? future pairing tank? or is it all your tanks the same size?
    And where can I buy those great sponges from? AUS or can i get them here in the states?
    Thanks in advance, SWWWWeeeTTTT videos and Discus!!!

  • @kris2341
    @kris2341 Před 9 lety

    this plop and drop method is very interesting, since you say the water chemistry is similar, is the temperature of the tank the same as the bag? Or is the bag temperature cooler and are the fish going into a tank of warmer temperature water with similar chemistry?
    I mainly want to know in order to have a sort of benchmark hardiness for what is considered quality discus compared to lesser discus (like what mine appear to be).
    I dont think my Vietnam discus (where the importer i got em from says they come from) would survive that kind of drop in.

    • @HansDiscus
      @HansDiscus  Před 9 lety

      Kris, it depends on he season. We measure the temp in the bags and adjust the temp in the tanks (system) close to the bag temp. Because Stendker knows of course how to ship their Discus, they come in good as warm. If needed we cool the setup down a little with colder water. Stendker Discus are known to be the hardiest around.

    • @kris2341
      @kris2341 Před 9 lety +1

      Discus Hans Thats good to know, if the water is similar, and temperature is similar, the acclimation can actually be skipped for superior results!
      I made a thread on simplydiscus detailing my experiences if you would care to take a look. Success or fail with my current 4 remaining discus, I will probably give your discus a try the next time around once I clear the growout tank out.

      @HansDiscus  Před 5 lety

      Brett you're more as welcome, as long as I know a little in advance so I can make sure I'm there. And for breeding, no we don't breed. All Discus are bred by Stendker in Germany, they ship them to me and I ship them all over the USA.

      Brett Bergamo I sell a lot of breeding pairs (everybody want to be like me when they grow up lol lol) I only sell the pairs as proven if they have babies in my tanks. To prove them I need a cone in there to let them spawn.

    Hans I am breeding angelfish successfully and I want to start trying to breed discus, what are your water parameters and I would definitely like to buy a breeding pair very soon but I am undecided on what color type to get. I know you're busy but if you get a minute of time can you please check out my videos under majestic cichlids and tell me what you think, if in your opinion am I ready to take that step up to discus breeding? Please leave a comment on my video it would mean the world to me because to me your one of the greats if not the greatest discus breeder in the world!

    • @HansDiscus
      @HansDiscus  Před 10 lety +3

      Importing from Germany into the USA is very expensive, I think bringing the Discus into Australia is even 2x expensive.Pricing has not ALWAYS to to with greed from people, most people don't understand the risk and "hidden" cost to get good quality Discus into your country.
