    Id be up for it, only thing I dont feed any of the mixes you guys use. I do earthworms, flake, bits and frozen foods so that would have to be alright in the contest.

    I have a planted or a bb to use so either way on that.

    Sounds like a lot of fun as it looks like challenge two produced some great fish from everybody.

    P.S. Id say let Hans enter but only if he provides all the fish!! =) .......doubt we would stand a chance though!

    I would love to throw my hat in the ring if my finances permit. I would also be willing to help you with this Al if there is anything that I can do.

    I also would be interested. I have plenty of tank space and would enjoy posting pictures and updates as I already visit this site everyday anyway.

    Now IF I had an empty tank, I would join lol lol

    Oepssssss it's Hobbyist challenge, they say I'm not a hobbyist anymore

    I would say you are still a hobbyist but I have never seen a picture of an empty tank at your facility. It would actually be fun to compete against a Discus expert.

    I wold definetly be interested and see that there are no other Canadians showing interest yet. My only problem would be having to go to the US to pick up the fish....wonder if there is a way around that.....HMMM

    Hi Al,

    After being successful with my current stock of Discus for the last two years I feel confident about participating in your third Discus Challenge.

    Thanks for the opportunity!
