    Thanks friends.

    Darren, yeah yeah easy talking now you're safe on the other side of the World lol lol

    Moik, the 20 gallons are for pairs, but not for breeding. We get in our sales tanks a lot of pairs/eggs, but I never had the time or space to put them in their own tank to see or they are REAL pairs. We get a lot of requests for pairs and now I can give them their own tank so we can guarantee and sell 100% pairs.
    This is not the only reason, it's also a kind of back up.
    Let me first say NO we have no intention of breeding our own, simply because we've don't have the time to breed Discus.
    But we saw ,I think it was 2 years ago, that nobody all the sudden was not allowed anymore to bring goldfish in. If that ever happens to Discus, we've our pairs here.

    Angela ??? OUR ?? no idea?? or did you mean YOUR in your post??
    If so, I can get them anytime from a breeder/wholesale (he has 10,000 in stock at the moment) but I wanted to see or a hobbyist wanted to make some money. But till now, not many reactions.

    By the way, a little side note here.

    Maybe nobody noticed but I've asked Al to remove me as a sponsor of the forum. At the moment I start to notice that people start to use the forums as a kind of black mail to get things done.

    The last one was that a customer of one of my dealers, 1 hour after he/she received the Discus he/she send an email to my dealer and I quote:

    I want a full refund or a full credit for these Discus. I will if not satisfyed put this out to the forums I am a member of.

    From now on, and let that be clear, emails like that don't get a reply anymore from me or my dealers. I'm willing to discus any problems but in an adult way, I stay behind my Stendker Discus AND my dealers, always have and always will.

    I first didn't want to post on the forum at all anymore, but I will be posting in this thread and in this thread only.

    By the way, 24 hours later after the Discus settled in the customer admit that he/she jumped the gun and made excuses so after all this all was over nothing.

    And Al if you need help or anything else you've my phone number, don't let this post scare you to call me
