    My girlfriend just bought me 3 discus for my planted tank, one jumped out immediately that night

    The side of the tank is situated facing the living room walkway and the 2 of them hide in that corner all the time... Maybe because there are more tall plants there.

    They are now quite dark as compared to when I first introduced them to the tank 2 days ago... One of them has tiny holes on the forehead and I see more of it today, is this what they call hole in the head disease?

    They aren't eating any fish food or frozen blood worms too...

    First time such stuff happen - dunno what to do man... feel so helpless...

    add 1 teaspoon of salt 1st and feed 1-2 hrs later if conditions worsen,... den i am stumped cos none of me cichlids get hole in the head until so bad. but look in the medical part of the forum cos they are better at this sort of thing. and i hope ur fish recover soon.
