HI i was just wondeirng the minimum size tank for discus?

 

[golfhacker]

The rule of thumb is 1 adult discus per 10 gallons of water. Discus are shoaling fish and do best in groups of 5 or more. So the minimum size tank for adult discus would be a 50 gallon aquarium. The bigger the tank, they better off your fish will be.
