You're asking for something which doesn't exist. Who doesn't want pure, solid, round, small discus. The fact is, you cannot guarantee the shape and coloration of discus as frys. Clean young fish often develop peppering as they get older. Round babies get long, although long babies seldom get round. If you want perfect fish

1. dig deep and buy adult specimens or
2. buy 10 - 12 young ones, grow them out, and sell the imperfect ones.

willie is correct. also....a breeder can have clean non peppered looking fish in his tank...and you can get htem and depending on your colours for background and lighting and care....you can end up with pepper. so very hard for them to guarantee. not sure anyone will guarantee no pepper. perhaps you should handpick?

Anything pigeon blood based will have some amount of peppering. Actually you won't even notice a few sprinkles. They have to be really clean as babies AND background will make a difference.

Snowflakes never have red eyes.

Perhaps you should look for the non-pigeon goldens from browns . . . .

Hector,
This is as good as it gets! but still after shipping and depending on your tank back ground some pepper may appear!
