Discus Trace™ provides a comprehensive range of trace elements scientifically demonstrated to be essential for optimal fish health and growth. Unlike terrestrial animals, fish derive vital nutrients not only from their diet but also directly from their aquatic environment. These trace elements can become depleted over time due to utilization, oxidation, and precipitation, making regular replenishment crucial. Discus Trace™ contains only those specific elements proven necessary for fish, ensuring a targeted and effective supplementation.
Many aquarium keepers use aquarium salt to restore mineral balance; however, elevated sodium levels can be harmful to sensitive species such as discus fish and live aquatic plants. Discus Trace™ offers a balanced mineral supplement that contains no sodium, making it ideal for maintaining a healthy environment for discus and other freshwater species without compromising plant life.
