    Exclamation A customer's house burned down, giving away his 10 discus (local pickup WA)

    Hi all,

    I received my customer Francois' unfortunate news today that his house was burned to the ground today except the room where his fish tank is. He asked me to help him post the following on SD here and he's giving away his 10 discus he just got from me these last couple months (6pcs 4.5"+/- Leopard w/ring gene, 4pcs 5.5+ Red Eagle select-grade) and this is for local pickup only. If anyone is local to Yarrow Point, WA 98004 and is interested in picking up this group free of charge, please contact Francois by email at fvigno2@gmail.com. Thank you.

    "My house burned to the ground.

    Only room thats fine was were the fish tank is.


    The fish are fine and good but I need to find a home for them.


    Can you post something on simply discuss for me.


    I'm giving all 10 discuss to whomever wants them.
    Tanks is running and is fine, but I won't be able to keep the fish at all as the house is totaled except that one room.


    So if you could help me find a house for them that would awesome.


    Tell any takers to email me directly I guess"

    Thanks for the overwhelming response!!!

    I found a good house for the discus, that was very quick, thanks Kenny for helping with this.

    I won't have time to reply to each and everyone emails, but I really really really wants to thank each of you for writing me and offering to take these fish!.

    thanks for the support.

    house is totaled, it's insane, but the only room left and in good shape was my office where the tank was! what are the odds.

    So sorry about your house Francois but so glad you were not hurt and hope your family is ok also. Sweet news that your fish have found a new home. I know things will not be easy for awhile but hopefully life will remain to normal for you.
    Best wishes to you,
