    Yes mac's discus just google that and you will get the site. I got so many mix reviews on this place. So I'm not really sure what I will get. They could turn out stunning or deformed acording to what the reviews I read said.

    I will wright up and show photo as soon as I get them. It's an adventure.

    I Got mixed reviews some were very happy with the fish and even went to his place. Others were ok with the fish some were not happy at all. I saw photos of some people discus they got from him. They were pretty and healthy looking but not show quality yet better then most LFS. No one ever said they were sickly. Even people that did not like the fish said they were healthy. So I thought what the heck I will try them I had a good feeling. Some discus snobs might not agree with me not going with more expencive better quality. I say whatever I'm new to discus and did not want to spend too much on these fancy fish. It would be like a 16yr new driver getting a ferrari IMO.

    Are there any other fish where the breeder and importer are so important that you get flamed for not ordering from "the best"?

    I was actually talking to allen b/c he said "good luck" I dont know if that was sarcasim for he has orderd from there before. Or if it was him just saying good luck.


    I am pretty sure everyone will get mixed reviews. So I would just go with the gut feeling ...works best most of the time. Let me know when they get there I would like to see some pics.

    WEll I got them. All look great and are healthy. Only thing was the so called Green Tefe are NOTHING like they should be but still nice looking fish.

    The red scribble was bigger then I thought he would be and looks amazing.

    Here is a group shot.



    The red scribble was laying in the bag when I open them I was so scared but after adding some clean fresh water he came to life. SO all was well the poop looks good they look well cared for. all and all I am happy with the chance I took.
