Red Carnation 2.75 inch

The new Red Carnation discus is a standout even among the wide variety of vividly colored and patterned cultivated discus. It is a beautiful blend of spots, striations, and stress bars that creates a discus that will be the star of your tropical aquarium. The Red Carnation discus has a tan to gold colored body that is covered with an engaging pattern of red spots and striations. It has the stress bars of a classic, wild discus, but the color of the bars on the body is faint. The exception is the head of the red tiger discus, which has a very dark stress bar running through its eyes. The pectoral and dorsal fins of this discus have red striations and thin stripes on them. The tail fin of this discus is a pale gold or tan color.

The Red Carnation discus has a round, flat body. At maturity, it can reach a length of 8.” The Carnation discus is round due to the fact that it is almost as tall as it is wide. In addition, the full dorsal and pectoral fins also contribute to its delightfully round shape. As one of the most striking discus ever bred, the red tiger discus is a beautiful show fish that adds a burst of color to your tropical aquarium. Whether you interested in a collection of multi-colored discus or focusing on just a school of these discus, this uniquely beautiful tropical fish is an excellent showpiece for your freshwater aquarium.
