The bottom line is that a breeding facility here in the US on the scale of a Malaysian one would not be cost effective. The truth of the matter is that it is much easier and cheaper for people outside of the US to have a farm than it is for us. I know of many oversees breeders that can get water from their tap and it is perfect for breeding discus! That is a luxury we do not have here for sure.
I will mention an exception, and that is Eric, one of our sponsors. He is known for breeding discus and had quite a large operation going on, but unfortunately, he had a disaster strike in his fish room and is in the process of rebuilding.
