    They are my most favorite of all the pics you've posted from breeders. The fish are stunning.

    I wonder why this level of discus (like many of your photos) is not available in the US

    Makes no business sense. Many products have different costs in different markets/countries. The could charge less and make up with the huge market opportunity here.
    Several of the sponsors list and sell fish for over $350.
