Thanks for your response guys ,
All of you are correct in what you say . There are good fish out there , and it is good to keep a speices as true to type as possible , just look at some of the more easily and over bred fish out there (Ie. tigerbarbs , kribs).They are no way has nice as the original wild caught fish. But some of us fish keepers like the challenge and discipline of makeing brighter and more interesting fish . Just look at guppies , fighting fish and the good old goldfish . And if it wasnt for this way of thinking where whould we be without all the wonderful types and forms of cats , dogs and horses . It's just my view , thats all. Thinking this way I look for the best specimen of the type and strain I am wanting to keep ( Lol collect might be a better term ). My problem is that , these ones are the most expensive to obtain (collect) and find , especailly when not many people want them .
I hope I didnt sound like I was complaining too much . :-? I only want to know where to get some different and nice veriety discus , here in NZ .
Are there any good breeders or wholesalers around ? I do try to get to know the guys at the lfs's and find them all very helpfull . I just dont like their mark up .lol
Cheers guys
