{"product_id":"orange-melon-discus","title":"Orange Melon Discus","description":"\u003cp\u003eOrange Melon Discus fish is a popular variety of the Discus fish (Symphysodon spp.), known for its vibrant, warm orange hue that covers most of its body, often contrasted with subtle white or yellow highlights. These freshwater fish are part of the cichlid family and are native to the Amazon River Basin, though this variety is selectively bred for its coloration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIII.

If the fish are unable to compete, they should be removed. The majority of serious hobbyists keep their discus separate from other species.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eIV.

Both frozen and live foods should be given to the animals as treats or to encourage spawning. Beef heart is not harmful, but it is not a natural food for discus, which some hobbyists and breeders feed them. Rotate their diet daily and only feed them what they can eat in two to three minutes, once or twice a day for best results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMyth busted\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou need to put your discus in a discus-only tank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eRecommended food \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-title product_title entry-title\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/splashyfin.com\/product\/optimum-cichlid-quick-red-100gm\/\"\u003eOptimum Cichlid Quick Red\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/splashyfin.com\/product\/starfarms-true-colour-cichlid-feed-100gm\/\"\u003eStarFarms True Colour – Cichlid Feed – 100gm\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"accordion_title\"\u003eDisclaimer for Live Aquarium Species\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"accordion\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"accordion-3913621047\" class=\"accordion-item\"\u003e\n\t\t\u003ca id=\"accordion-3913621047-label\" class=\"accordion-title plain active\" href=\"#accordion-item-live_aquarium_species_\" aria-expanded=\"true\" aria-controls=\"accordion-3913621047-content\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003cbutton class=\"toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle\"\u003e\u003ci class=\"icon-angle-down\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/button\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003cspan\u003eLive Aquarium Species \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"accordion-3913621047-content\" class=\"accordion-inner\" style=\"display: block;\" aria-labelledby=\"accordion-3913621047-label\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe website's content serves as general information.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eWe take excellent care to make sure your Live Fish and Invertebrates arrive safely and in good health.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eBeing a natural product, appearance can vary slightly from photos.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003ePlease double-check that the  Fish or the  Invertebrate you order is exactly what you want before submitting your order.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eWe often ship within 48 hours.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eLive Fish and Invertebrates that you decide you don't want cannot be returned or refunded.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eOnce the fish reaches your waters it shall be at your sole risk, we are not responsible if you lose any marine fish, freshwater fish, crustaceans, or live plants.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"accordion_title\"\u003eDisclaimer for Individual fish prices\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"accordion\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"accordion-734039969\" class=\"accordion-item\"\u003e\n\t\t\u003ca id=\"accordion-734039969-label\" class=\"accordion-title plain active\" href=\"#accordion-item-price_for_individual_fish_\" aria-expanded=\"true\" aria-controls=\"accordion-734039969-content\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003cbutton class=\"toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle\"\u003e\u003ci class=\"icon-angle-down\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/button\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003cspan\u003ePrice For Individual fish \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"accordion-734039969-content\" class=\"accordion-inner\" style=\"display: block;\" aria-labelledby=\"accordion-734039969-label\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur listed prices are for individual fish unless otherwise specified.
