    Is there something specific you're looking for that you can't find? I'm happy with the variety from the suppliers that I currently get my fish from.

    Yes - I'd get a breeding pair of some Wattley original strain discus from the (old?) guy in Germany who has them but doesn't ship. My much older brother and his second wife, who emigrated here from Germany, go back there and visit for a month or two at a time. Trying to figure out how to ask him to bring me back fish!

    I'm moving back to the US soon. Heck if I knew how too I could bring some German varieties back with me. others too I suppose. Sounds like a serious hassle I think.

    well place your orders, and get some paper work together and I'll gather up the fish and bring them in a few months. :-)
