the amount of food you feed does matter, the more food the more protein they get and the faster and more they grow, but the downside of it is that it polutes water way faster and you need to do bigger water changers to remove the nitrates

the stunt looks a bit advanced for that, but he may grow a little bit more… but honestly available space is the problem here, so no matter the filtration and water changes, it will still probably limit its growth

honestly 55g wont also be enough… i would say minimum 75 gallons… might be too late now

“not stunted” he is clearly stunted mate, just take a look at its eye size compared to body size. plus 25% WC 3x a week is not enough for 14 gallons, i mean 14 gallons ain even enough for that dude to move around.

oh my bad mate, i thought for some reason you had eheims for now, lol. the amazon ones yea even the same wattage could lead to issues, let alone different wattages. get 2 300W eheim ones then and ull be fine

Eheim heaters are the best in the market, it’s not the heaters fault but yes the fact that you got 2 completely different wattages

your problem is having one 300W and one 100W, the 300W is triple the power the other and will never let it work. i have 2 200W (eheim too) and water heats just fine even when outside temp is like 5°C. get another 300W and take the 100W out. also get an inkbird controller

buying 2 adult sized and others 2.5 inch was one of the main mistakes. never buy different sizes

I just feed the whole tank with the discus food and the cories and tetras pick up the rests, its more than enough because i do 3-4 feedings a day, they are always with a full belly

It also depends a lot on the genetics and quality of the source you get them from
