Giant Flora

Giant Flora is a large-bodied flora-type discus with strong patterned markings and an imposing rounded profile.

Appearance

A large-bodied flora-type discus with strong patterned markings and an imposing rounded profile. Actual coloration, pattern intensity and body markings can vary naturally between individual fish and may continue developing as the fish matures.

Temperament

  • Generally peaceful and social when maintained under suitable discus conditions.
  • Best kept with other discus of a similar size; a group of around 5 or more is commonly preferred when aquarium size and filtration allow.
  • Sensitive to abrupt changes in water quality, temperature and environment, so a calm and stable aquarium is important.

Care Requirements

  • Water temperature: approximately 28°C to 30°C.
  • pH: around 6.0 to 7.0, with stability being more important than chasing an exact number.
  • Water: clean, well-filtered water with regular water changes. Soft to moderately mineralised water can work well for captive-bred discus when they are properly acclimated.
  • Filtration: strong biological filtration with gentle, non-stressful flow.

Diet

Feed a varied, high-quality diet suitable for discus, including quality pellets or granules, flakes and appropriate frozen foods. Offer sensible portions and remove uneaten food to protect water quality.

Special Notes

  • Selected for a substantial body shape and visible flora-style pattern.
  • As specimens grow, pattern density and contrast can become more pronounced.
  • Provide generous swimming space and strong biological filtration for larger specimens.
  • Fish are sold per piece. Size is measured approximately from head to tail.
  • Current-stock photographs or videos can be requested before ordering.
