    I have purchased some discus from Jeff in the past. Great shipping, nice quality discus, good price. I had no problem. Great shipping cost for my area. He just put out a new list and he does have Forrest giant blue and red eagle discus ready for sale this weekend.

    That is indeed a beautiful Forrest Giant Gene SS raised by me and acquired from me. Forrest has only one US Distrubtor that being Kenny. Jeff is a stand up guy with plenty of beautiful discus as well. This fish was acquired by me from Kenny at 2.5" as a Forrest Giant Blue 14 bar and raised by me to 5+".

    Dave, that's called an Albino Golden Sunrise. Awesome fish with high fins! I wish my phone can take better pictures because that fish looks even better in person. My intention going over to Jeff's @ exotic was mainly for the Red Eagles but when I saw that AGS, I just had to have it! lol Jeff is great guy, been dealing with him for over 2 years now and always great experience every time.

    Jeff is an awesome guy. I picked up two platinums from him. He is now my go to guy for discus from now on.
    He will keep in contact with you until the discus are doing well in your tank. He responds fast and is also very helpful. My discus were delayed due to Fedex and he kept in touch with me and made all the calls necessary to get the discus to me as fast as possible. Even offered me refund on everything including shipping if the discus were not alived upon arrival. I haven't had a great customer service like this in a very long time.
    The discus are beautiful, you can see them on his website for yourself. Whatever you see is whatever you'll get. I can attest to this.
