Seachem Discus Trace 500mL — Vital Trace Mineral & Electrolyte Supplement To Replicate Amazonian River Water Conditions For Discus and Cichlid Species
Seachem Discus Trace 500mL (SKU: 724898-753) is a specialised trace mineral supplement engineered to replicate the soft, mineral-rich Amazonian river water conditions required by Discus (Symphysodon species) and cichlids. Because Discus are highly sensitive to mineral deficiencies, municipal tap water or purified RO water often lacks the exact trace element profile needed for long-term health.
Discus Trace supplies essential trace minerals including iodide, iron, manganese, zinc, and copper in safe, bioavailable trace amounts. It promotes proper osmoregulation, supports vibrant colour development, and reduces susceptibility to Hole-in-the-Head (HITH) disease caused by trace element starvation.
