Description

The snake skin discus has a beautiful pattern as a result of crossbreeding multiple varieties of discus. In the snake skin discus, the vertical stress bars common to discus found in the wild have been completely eliminated. Colors of snake skin discus vary widely according to the color of the fish used in breeding, but they are usually a solid color rather than multiple shadings. Snake skin discus can be blue, red, green, tan, or gold. Their bodies are covered in a pattern of striations that are fine lines, most of which run horizontally. Close to the fins, the striations become more broken and dot like. The head of the snake skin discus also has striations on it. The dorsal and pectoral fins are covered with a series of thinly lined striations as well.

Discus fish are popular for collectors because of their large body size, their appealing round shape, and their vibrant colors and markings. The snake skin discus has a very round and flat body. It has considerably full pectoral and dorsal fins that extend almost the full length of its body, which adds to the roundness of its body. A mature snake skin discus will reach a size of 8” long, and its body is almost as tall as it is wide. Discus are also appealing to collectors because of their calm, peaceful nature, and the pleasant coloring and patterns of a snake skin discus will enhance any tropical aquarium. Whether in a school or rainbow colored discus or a collection of just snake skins, this discus will stand out.

    Posted by Shay Wells on 10th Dec 2022

    I ordered six fish from Macs Discus, including a Snake Skin, a Hi Fin Saphire Blue Diamond, and Altum Flora Red Turquoise, and a Hi Fin Red Royal. All six fish are, or its clear will be once full grown, as beautiful as advertised and arrived all the way on the west coast happy and healthy. I could not be happier with my order.

    my new discus

    Posted by Fran on 7th Oct 2018

    I picked up my discus today from Steve . He was so helpful all my new discus are doing fine with my others I already had. I fed them and only a couple didn't eat but Steve told me that might happen because he had already fed them. Only to of the smaller ones seemed to be shy but as the day goes on they are coming out more. Thank you so much for sharing your lovely fish. Will be ordering more from you in the future
