This very beautiful discus fish is traded as well under the name „Semi Royal Blue“. Wild caught discus fish are just beautiful! It is remarkable that still new wild type varieties are found and imported. Wild caught discus fish will not be feeling themselves well if not kept under optimal conditions. This malcontent will be seen very fast by bad colouration and shy behaviour. If your wild caught discus fish is looking rather pale, something is definitely wrong with the aquarium conditions. But please do not became worried too fast if your discus fish is not optimally coloured, because colour intensity will become visible in time, even after several months of obtaining the fish from your trader followed by optimal care. The fish will become more and more beautiful week after week. The most important criteria for obtaining these fish is therefore not colouration but body form, size of the eyes, form of the fins and their natural behaviour. (Text: I. den Daas, Photo: F. Schäfer)
