I just read a four page post about how bad Rainforest Discus is to deal with and the only people who have stuck up for him only had one post. Sounds like a bunch of crap to me! Like I said stick with the sponsors on this forum they all have what you need want or desire.JMO for what its worth!

I've been mostly a reader of this forum, however this thread compelled me to post; you've been taken for your money by a crook. Those fish look awful. I've talked to the Rainforest Int'l guy on the phone to order another type of fish. I didn't like the way he was dealing with me and I backed out. I recommend, as other posts have, that you cancel the charges to your credit card. I might just ship the fish back to him. If he gives you a hard time, tell him you are prepared to fight by calling his state government offices and filing a complaint.

Simply Members, is there a way for him to name this photo as he posts it to this forum so that it reflects on Rainforest Int’l? Say, he names the photo “rfidiscus.com.” It might return on the first page of a Google search under images. He could write a warning on the photo. If it’s possible, it might be way of alerting future potential buyers.

This is beyond belief. The sponsors of this forum would never have sent you a Discus if it was not top quality and in great health. That has been my experience with them. I wish you the best in trying to resolve this issue.

Hi all

Just to add a bit of a balanced prespective to this thread and please note that I am posting this as my personal experience but prior to finding out all this information about Tom, I had placed an order with him and the customer service and fish that I got from him was great. Of the many fish I ordered, there was only one that died the next day and Tom was more than happy to provide a replacement. Again, this is just my personal experience and based on this experience, if I didn't have April in Vancouver supplying excellent discus, I would consider reordering from him.

In fact, there is another supplier from Canada from whom I ordered almost $1,000 worth of discus, who is a sponsor on this site who sent me fish in the same condition as described by the original poster and who has made NO EFFORTS to make up for his shipping issues. Karma will get him but thats another conversation for another thread.

You're one of the few lucky ones Joseph. Not sure what sponsor you're talking about on here...unless it's one of the few that have since been banned...Maybe we have the right to be warned?...Hey George...LOL...I was trying HARD to not bring that up! But yea...very sick! Says a lot about a person...Bill
