{"product_id":"tiger-snake-discus","title":"Tiger Snake Discus","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe tiger snake discus (\u003cem\u003eSymphysodon\u003c\/em\u003e sp.) is a snakeskin-derived line in which the fine overall striping is crossed by bolder dark barring, giving a stronger, more graphic look than a plain snakeskin fish. The strength of that barring varies with the individual and shifts with mood, so a fish that appears heavily marked one day can look softer the next. Discus are South American cichlids from warm, slow, tannin-stained water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAquarium care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTall aquarium rather than a long, low one.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarm, stable water at the upper end of the tropical range.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegular partial water changes and a lightly stocked tank.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeep five or more so no single fish takes the pressure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscus granules, frozen bloodworm and beefheart preparations, fed without rush.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBar contrast changes with mood and background; a settled fish shows the pattern best.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuits a keeper who wants a bolder pattern than the standard snakeskin lines offer.
