Description
Discus Trace is a trace mineral supplement for discus fish that contains only those elements that have been demonstrated to be necessary for fish health and growth. Trace elements are depleted by utilization, oxidation, and precipitation, so it is important to restore them on a regular basis.
Seachem Discus Trace
Trace elements supplement for discus
Contains only those elements actually demonstrated* to be required by fish
Seachem Discus Trace supplies a broad range of trace elements demonstrated to be necessary for proper fish health and growth. Unlike terrestrial animals, fish obtain nutrients from both their food and environment. Trace elements are normally depleted by utilization, oxidation, and precipitation, thus it is important to restore them on a regular basis.
Discus Trace contains only those elements actually demonstrated to be required by fish.

Why It's Different
Aquarium salt is often used to add salts back to aquarium water. Some fish will tolerate this therapeutic use of salt; however, some fish are less tolerant. Discus as a species will not tolerate this elevated level of sodium in the water. If you keep live plants in your discus aquarium, the plants will not tolerate this either. Discus Trace is a well-rounded trace mineral supplement that does not contain sodium and is used to replenish trace and ultra-trace minerals that are demonstrated to be necessary for fish health and growth.
Directions
Use 1 capful (5 mL) for every 80 L (20 gallons*) once or twice a week.
