DISCUS TANK "Doing it the MFK way"

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Jose Id have to agree w/ the others when it comes to the wild/sensitvity myth. My brother has quite a handfull of stunning Wild discus from Snookn and they are doing great in his tank. No treatment done to the water at all. Once they are settled in to the 120 I'll go over and snap some pics.

Joey your tank never ceases to amaze. Well done!
 
Does it say more about your or me that today I came here expecting to see another new batch of Discus and was both surprised and disappointed that I didn't?

I'm still @ work...lol

Waited for the fed Ex guy this morning and soon as they arrived had to quickly acclimate because I couldn't get off work today =-( Just made sure they were all alive and tried to get the temp slowly acclimated to that was ideal to dump them in. Water was still warm from the packaging so they were nice & comfy... I'm still worried thought because I normally have a routine when I acclimate new fish, couldn't do that today because I was in a rush..... kinda worried to tell you the truth when I go home to see them.. =-( hopefully all is well.....

I'll try to take a few pix's tonight...when I get home.. At a quick glance though I had a smile from ear to ear =-)

Ok here's probably a dumb question, since I haven't researched this enough....Is there any vendors selling captive-bred wilds lol? Like, F1+ fish from wild caught parents? I love the wild strains, but I don't want to deal with the sensitivity of wild caught fish (even though Joey does nothing special to his water).

Here you go Jose

Dale Jordan Hatcheries bought alot of High quality wild stock from me and other vendors around the world.

He has some of the best F-1 stock that I know of.

Check them out :

I was so close to pushing the button last month with that recent Hudson group buy....

Dont push that button Joey

I will have the same fish. Hudson was suppose to be partners with us, then he broke our partnership because hans shot him down some money quicker and told hudson not to sell to any other dealer in the USA.

I have a good source in brazil that gets all of these fish you are paying alot of money for.

When I have them, they will be much cheaper. But if you dont want to wait its all up to you. I will have the whole list come the first of the year.

Just wanted you to know so you can save alot of $$$

Thanks,
John

Nice! This is what I want too. I'll send a deposit now if it gets me close to the pick of the litter... see, now there's good reason that I've been procrastinating about it.

Bro, like what we discussed. This whole Discus scene is just like PBASS.

For people who hesitate buying from you is just missing out. It's actually better they don't because it's more for me...lol....

That's why I haven't pushed that button bro. The Discus you get are incredible. I want more of the Belem brown.... I'm going to the RED CROSS tomorrow to donate some blood. I need a shipment before X-Mas...lol

Okay John, help me out here... Here are pic's of the Nhamunda Red, Nhamunda Blue, Belem Brown. Not even 24hrs in the tank and they all look amazing,,,
