Discus fish question?

Question

How many gallons does an adult discus need?

Answer 1

I wouldn't give an exact volume, as there are far more important factors (foot print, filtration, social arrangement), but I will say that I wouldn't keep a single Discus or a pair of adults in less than a 40 gallon tank, but a 55 gallon tank should be fine for 2 pairs.

Answer 2

I'd go for as many as u have room for and in a tank with plenty of plants, If for multiple fish go for around 120 gallons plus.

Answer 3

They need at least 25 gallons each, and they benefit from a tall tank with lots of driftwood.
