Ross is it?

Do you have any wilds and do you breed? I've seen you on qldaf and know you're a breeder, a successful one at that.

Thanks, Eric.

Hi Eric,
I used to have some tank bred wilds, bred in Oz. Yes i breed a couple discus here and there mate.

**Eric A** · Sun Jul 24, 2011, 08:50 AM

So you don't breed anymore wildforms?

**rex82** · Sun Jul 24, 2011, 09:17 AM

No not wild forms, will give heckels a go down the track and some tefe greens but while i'm still renting i'll stick to the easier stuff

No worries. I'll find some wilds one way or another, wholesale is probably the cheapest i'll find around anyway

While you're saving for your group have the tank running so the filter and tank is absolutely cycled and mature and ready to receive the Discus.

You'd hate to see crazy water quality swings after introducing the fish because it wasn't ready for them.

All the best with the search

You will prob find bays to be best bang for buck in the country, though you will have to quarantine them and treat them. But still worth the effort after the savings you would make purchasing elsewhere

I've got a nice 3'x18"x18" quarintine tank for them

.

AI does them too, i'll have a look.

Thanks for your help Ross, i'll be sure to ask more questions
