Picky discus

Hey guys I have this discus now for about 2.5 years but she’s super picky. She basically eats everything reluctantly. If I give her pellets she eats only a few same with white worms and black worms. The only thing I’ve found she really enjoys is beefheart. I made a beefheart mix that she absolutely loved. Is there any pellet food or somthing else that she might enjoy?

New grower

Hi guys I grew all these dragon fruit plants from seed and this year they really started taking off in growth. I just saw these white spots all over my yellow dragon fruit I’m not sure what this is? Also I wanted to know if there’s any way to adapt them to full sun. At the start of the year there was a heat wave that made all of them turn yellow and burn a bit, I shaded them with an umbrella for a few weeks and now they’re fine. It’s already summer and they are doing way better in the heat than at the start but some branches are still turning yellow. Any advice regarding my placement and pruning appreciated too.

Red tiger lotus buds

Hi guys I’m just getting into keeping some aquarium plants for my discus. I’ve managed to keep an anubias and val alive for a while so I wanted to try a red tiger lotus. I bought these buds like a month ago and they havnt done anything. I’m not sure if they’re dead, I got scammed, or maybe my parameters are off? Temp is 83 degrees ph 6.5 hardness is low for my discus.

Discus darting

Hey guys I have a 2 discus alone In my 75 gallon tank. I’ve been trying to get them to lay eggs since they did before but haven’t for over a year. for some reason my male keeps darting around the tank, I’ve treated with prazipro and kanaplex but he looks totally healthy. He eats and is active but randomly it seems he’ll dart around the tank or swim fast then start vibrating his fins. My water parameters look fine so I’m not really sure why he does this and I’m thinking what ever it is could be the reason they’re not laying eggs. Ph 6.5, temp ~84 degrees, kh 40ppm, gh 60ppm. I tested just using api testing strips.

Help new mango please

Hi guys I’m back, I posted once before about 3 weeks ago with my seed grown mango it was pretty healthy I thought at the time. It was too big for its little pot so I transferred it to a bigger one. I didn’t use exact measurements but I put mostly topsoil and perlite with some dirt from my front yard. I started trying to put it outside so it could get used to the sun (I had it under a grow light) and it seemed fine for a while. Its leaves dropped lower but didn’t shrivel at all so I thought it was just getting used to the outside. A few days ago I noticed the leaves started to curl and now they are all shriveling. Can I still save it? I’ve moved it back inside for 3 days now but the leaves keep shriveling.
