Hey guys, long time no see!
Unfortunately, I no longer have any more time to partake in discus anymore. I haven't really had time for a while, but we will be moving soon, which makes me need to sell these now.
Pics will be coming soon, as I'm about to head out.
Up for sale are:
1x Heckel (wild) medium sized
1x RSG (wild) probably small sized
1x Albino blue diamond medium sized
1x Red Turquoise large sized
1x Red spotted leopard medium-large
Sizing is all my own description, and would probably be described as one size larger by stores. I won't even attempt to guess their lengths, since I suck at guessing lengths.
Eye sizes are all quite good. No giantic eyes.
Shapes are all good. The RSG is probably the worst shape (maybe a little long).
They are currently being held in water that is 29C with a pH of 6.5 or near to it.
They are very attentive and friggin ALWAYS hungry!! Currently being fed on frozen "discus dinner". I've fed all my discus on frozen food for a long time, so they have no idea what dry food is.
The RSG appears to be a little skittish right now, and I think he may have flukes, but he/she/it will be treated before sale. Either way it's recommended that they are all quarantined before adding to your own tank.
I will specifically add that I am requesting that I want to only sell to someone who is passionate about discus, and preferably experienced. Wild discus are not the easiest to take care of, and it's hard to tell when albinos are sick since they do not change colour.
I will also include some good quality discus books, to ensure that whoever is buying them has the available knowledge on hand to treat them well. I'll list them probably tomorrow, but they are of highly reputable authors and most are well known publications. They are currently 2nd hand, so are older and not always in the best condition, but the information inside is more often that not top quality and hasn't changed.
For another $50 I'll add a signed copy of The Naked Truth by Andrew Soh (I think it's signed anyway) in very good condition.
So, for 5 discus, some books and whatever random stuff I decide to throw in, I'm asking $400 which works out to be about $80 each. $450 including The Naked Truth.
I am located in Glenhaven, next to Castle Hill, Sydney. I won't ship because 1) I have no idea how to do it and 2) I would rather see the buyer look at the discus in person before they buy them.
