The Blue Diamond Discus is a favorite to fish and aquarium hobbyists because of its electric blue, vibrant colour — it’s a discus that is hard to miss, in fact, it may even draw you towards the aquarium for a double take! The solid blue colour has been selectively bred for the most stunning varieties of the Diamond Blue Discus! The overall shape of the Blue Diamond Discus is a thin oval shape with long, illuminated fins! When choosing a Blue Diamond Discus for your home aquarium it’s important to avoid dark and patchy Blue Diamonds with a skittish or withdrawing (hiding) demeanor, as this indicates a high likelihood of disease, worms, or a stressed fish. The temperament of the Blue Diamond Discus is peaceful, although it can become more territorial when breeding. If you are looking to breed your Blue Diamond Discus, it’s important that you breed an established pair that has already paired themselves. This is an extremely popular breed of discus because of its beautiful colour, but with such a stunning discus comes a greater level care compared to other freshwater fish as we’ll touch on in their aquarium environment and diet below.

Origin: Amazon Basin, Orinoco Basin and various rivers in the Guiana Shield in tropical South America. 
Location: Found in natural tributaries of the Amazon, Orinoco & Guiana Shield River in South America
Diet: They are omnivores, will readily accept most Tropical Flakes, Flakes, Spirulina flakes, Tropical Granules, Algae Rounds, Shrimp Pellets, frozen foods, GHM & BHM’s.
Adult Size: 6-10″
Recommended Tank Size: 130 liters+
Compatibility: Many aquarists don’t realize that angelfish grow quite large and have a bit of a temper. They are too aggressive for smaller tropical fish and too passive for cichlids. Choosing the right tank mates for freshwater angelfish requires a balance.

Though it can be tricky, plenty of fish do well with angelfish. Among them include some tetras, plecos, rainbowfish, and rams.
