Tracy Watkins in Nicholasville, KY just south of Lexington.
Just getting started with Discus although I have been keeping fish most of my adult life. The wife and I have two reefs going but my main interest seems to be the Discus.

Both my sons just started Discus tanks too. Seems to have taken hold in our family.

I got the siam yellow from somethingsphishy which I will never buy from again and the alenquer, santarem, flachen snake, and pigeon blue all came from one of the sponsors on here Hans. I started keeping discus in December 2009 so I am pretty new at it myself. I can try and get some pics of those you asked about and post them on here.

What kind do you have?

[mwdw]

I have 4 leopard pigeon snake skin, 1 blue diamond, 1 red golden diamond, 1 reflection D, 2 white pigeons(not sure of the name) i got them all from kingdom come discus haven. look under fish sold to see what i have. check him out, great guy,really good prices. i have a 150 gallon empty,he'll be seeing alot of me. i work only 5 minutes from him.

Mark Moriarty in Frankfort, KY. Frankfort lies between Lexington & Louisville.

I just got my very first discus in March of this year after my ex girlfriend bought me 8 beautiful blue diamond discus for my birthday.

I have been keeping tropical fish since 1980. I've dabbled in saltwater, but I always seem to return to my first love which is the freshwater tropicals.

When I got my blue diamonds they were only 2" long, but now they are all between 3" - 4."

I've got four of them that have paired off together and have recently started exhibiting spawning behavior. I'm considering parting with the four others who have not paired off.

The reason I am considering parting with the four "loners" is because I am wanting to try some other varieties to take their place in an attempt to showcase more than one species in my discus tank.

I am very interested in getting one or two turquoise blue, and one or two diamond snakeskin discus that I've seen on the Kingdom Come Discus website which I came across here at this site.

I never knew that there was a discus hatchery here in central KY. I am looking forward to seeing the beautiful discus they have up close in person.

Have any of you visited their hatchery in Wilmore, or perhaps purchased any of their fish before?

No but I hope to soon

[dawrtw]

I have.
I've purchased several fish from Kraig. The last time I was there he had more Discus than most pet stores had fish.

Super nice guy.

Hello all. I'm about 40 minutes southeast of Bowling Green, just across the state line in Lafayette, TN.

I'm just getting back into caring for fish after a 17 year hiatus. My wife previously kept discus in the late 1990's, but I'm only experienced in oscars from the cichlid families.

We're getting our 55 gallon community tank transitioned from an Emperor 400 to an Eheim 2236 & stable, with the hope to have discus by new years. So far, it looks like Kraig is the closest sponsor to me. :D
