    Default Juveniles in a 37G

    The juveniles are now in their new home - thanks, Rick!

    I moved the Brilliant Pair I got from Rick into their own 20G tank and placed the juveniles into the 37G covered tank. I don't top the water up so they are not technically in 37G of water. It's a simple bare bottom tank with a Hydro Sponge V filter - not the most fun tank to look at but it works. Two heaters in case one fails. I plan on feeding three times a day - once in the morning before work, another when I get home from work, and one more at night. I plan on feeding frozen blood worms and dried black worms I got from Rick. I plan on doing daily water changes. Temperature is between 85-86F. I condition the tap water to remove chlorine, etc. Unlike my community discus tanks, I don't plan on adding any additives (similar to my breeding tanks). Keep it simple.

    I think that's it. Should be fun! Thanks again, Rick!

    Juveniles settling in. They have big appetites! PS - Usually don't include music in my videos but wanted to cover up some background noise
