I actually went to my LFS the other day and they had huge "green discus" bigger then ones I had ever seen before. Now that I looked over this page again I noticed they were wilds. I would say about 7 inches and looked very healthy. The price??? 49.99 staggering. To bad those guys would probably destroy my little 3 inch discus. Or would they????

You don't think they would kill or harass all my smaller fish? They would be the biggest thing in my tank BY FAR. As I said all my discus are around 3 inches and they are huge

I don't have enough exerience to comment much on that, but I do have one wild royal blue & it's my biggest by far. I have a very small alencer as well. The wild royal blue is no more a bully than any of the others. They all have their little mini confrontations, but he is usually the shyest of the lot, often backing off first. All mainly seems for show anyway - no-one ever seems really bothered.

But, if would only to tell us which LFS has these large green wilds, I'm sure they wouldn't be there much longer & you wouldn't need to worry further :wink:

still - it backs up my thoughts on another thread here. If you can get them for those kind of prices in the US, and it's one of the countries we can import from, why can't we get more here - even at triple or quadruple the price, they'd still be snapped up

New York, those fish are probably going to be there for a long time. Not much discus people here at all. If you ask questions about discus here your on your own.
