My Upcoming order from Forrest (sold out) :p

[Argentum]

Okay everyone I just wanted to share with you the Discus I will be getting from Forrest Teo.
This is a personal order for a friend and I that was being cooked in the background for some time now and it will be shipped to Jeddah, KSA in 2 days.

I just wan't to thank Forrest for his patience and cooperation, he communicates very well through email or even whatsapp, it showed how dedicated and hardworking he is which is reflected in his nice FAT discus :). I must admit that I was not an easy customer lots of questions changes and revisions but he was very cooperative (sorry Teo), considering this to be a small order for an exporter/breeder.

So thank you again Forrest and with the pictures of the discus, and please share your thoughts and openions:

HAHA ... LOL ... yea it's not small for me but its small when you are importing.
The total $$ is very high with shipping and other Misc. counting for 40% of the cost.

Anyway its going to be divided by three two of my friends and I

My wife keeps on asking me how much did they cost and I keep escaping the answer "they are very well priced, cost less than some local fish"
haha

With Forrest staying so close to my place...this thread is really poisoning!

I need to get a new tank first! Or Two tanks!

lol, I'm sure i've used that line as well. Also, I use to use the "I'm eventually going to breed them and I'll get my money back AND SOME!". Of course back then I had no intentions of breeding, lol.

Hello everyone,

Here is a little update with the discus, so today will be day 5 for them. I have 3 out of six eating until now (the yellows and one F.G.B. SS). They get daily 100% WC and are feed small amounts of my BH mix. I also tried Forrests pellets but only the same 3 will eat them, I will try again today at noon.

This Rafflesia is my favorite

A little big update here.

First one of the Snake skins paired up with a Blue Diamond (Non Forrest) and laid eggs yesterday :D

The second thing in another group (the ones above), I still have them in a BB and power feeding them with daily WC on of the Rafflesia is still not eating so I started adding Metro to the water as well.
