1. Brief introduction to seven-color fish
Seven-color fish is the general term for the yellow-brown discus, discus, and Telfair's discus under the genus Symphysodon. The fish's color is brown, brilliant blue, and dark green. The normal body size is 20 cm long, nearly round, laterally compressed, with a very short caudal peduncle and symmetrical dorsal and anal fins.
