{"product_id":"ocean-green-discus","title":"Ocean Green Discus","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe ocean green discus (\u003cem\u003eSymphysodon\u003c\/em\u003e sp.) is a green-toned member of the turquoise group, carrying fine striping in a soft blue-green over a warmer ground, so the overall impression sits closer to sea green than to the harder metallic blue of other turquoise lines. Striping density varies between individual fish and between breeders. Discus are disc-shaped cichlids from the warm, slow-moving tributaries of the Amazon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAquarium care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTall tank rather than a long shallow one.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarm water at the upper end of the tropical range, held steady.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegular partial water changes and a lightly stocked tank.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeep five or more; single discus tend to be nervous and feed poorly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscus granules, frozen bloodworm and beefheart preparations, fed at an unhurried pace.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreen tones show best against a dark substrate and background.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuits keepers who find the bright blue lines too cold and want something softer.
