WTB: Turquoise juvenile discus in Michigan

[jmowbray]

Title says it all. I'm located in Central Michigan (Bay City, Saginaw, Midland) but also am in Mt. Pleasant for school throughout the week. Please let me know if any one can help me out.

Thanks all

Depending how big of a hurry you're in, I'm in Midland from time to time visiting grandchildren and often have some nice turqs available.

Check out Club Green Aquatics when you are in Mt. Pleasant. The owner Paul typically has a nice selection of discus available, including discus from Kenny who is a sponsor here on Simply Discus. You can see pictures of some of his discus on Facebook under Club Green Aquatics.

Thanks everyone for the replies. I never even knew about the store in Mt. P. I drive past it every day. I'm very familiar with Tropical Tails as I get SW coral and fish there. Is Club Green Aquatics reasonable in price. How much should I be expecting to pay for juvi's? I have never had discus before but I have breed and raised angles for 2 years. Now out of them I thought discus would look nice in my 72 bowfront. I was thinking 3 or 4 is that a good amount for that size?

5 or 6 juveniles is a good number to have together to spread out the bulling.

[Nick Klimkowski]

four to five would be fine for that size tank it will give them lots of room to grow out, as far as price goes there really is no simple answer for you on that it all dpends on quality, the breeder, were it is from "germany or asia" etc. Do some reading on buying discus and what to look for when buying, there are some great resources here on the fourm that can help you i think it was Al who wrote a very good article on what to look for when buying. Good luck with the new setup.:D

Nick has some beautiful turquoise in oh. I am in Grand Rapids. We could possibly share shipping. He quoted 95. I also know there was someone looking to make the drive turn him from Kalamazoo. Might be able to work something out.

Ok maybe i'm just naïve but is $50 cheap for 2-3inch fish. I mean WOW!!!! I was thinking. About 20-25 maybe I'm into the wrong thing. I used to have a wild pair of Altums for 30 each.

I sent him an email for a quote.

Actually I just got a reply back from him. I'm interest as well but wouldn't be able to get any until after the new year as I haven't moved the 72 yet to my house.
