    Default Help...Purchasing Discus from Breeders/Hobbyist in Seattle Washington.

    Hello, my name is Katri. I am new to SimplyDiscus. I am a 17 year old exchange student from Finland, living in Montana. I have kept fish for 10 years. I am looking for a Hobbyist/Breeder in the Seattle Washington Area to purchase Red Turquoise, Blue Turquoise or Red Rio Purus Discus between July 7th and 9th ( I wil be in the area then). Please email me if you have any available.

    I don't know anyone in Seattle, but there's a ton of people in Portland, OR with nice discus. Is that too far to drive?

    The problem in sending is that I do not have the hotels address where I'm going to stay 2 days in Seattle. And it would be pretty difficult and expensive too. I don't drive by myself and I don't know am I even allowed to go so far.
    But thanks anyway

    Katri;

    Seattle has a decent Chinatown and I remember a fish store within Chinatown that had decent quality discus -- not great, but decent. I also passed a store called Discus King, but was told by a local that their discus was of poor quality. Still, its worth checking into.

    Have fun on your trip and bring an umbrella. Seattle has more rainy days than any other major city in the U.S.

    How about NW Discus Hatchery in Stanwood? I know nothing about them as far as health and quality..... they're just north of Seattle maybe 50 miles?(rough guess)

    www.nwdiscushatchery.com

    again... Mat could probably enlighten us here.
