This book shows how even first-time discus owners can succeed in the keeping and breeding of the beautiful and popular discus species and subspecies, including many of the much sought-after and expensive new color varieties that have come onto the market in recent years. It provides plenty of practical information and valuable experience-based advice about water conditions, selecting specimens, breeding, health care, and more.

The key to keeping the many colorful and sought-after discus fishes is to know what they need and what has to be avoided. This book tells you all you need to know to get started keeping these "Kings of the Aquarium".
