Tell me the cheapest and most healthy places you have bought your discus from?

Your best bet is to search out local hobbyist/breeders and importers with a good reputation. Ask to view and select the Discus yourself. If imported, find out from what country & breeder they were imported from and what type of quarantine period /treatment they received before making your purchase.

Unless you have an excellent background in treating diseased fish, I would steer clear from Discus imported from Thailand.

Cheap is a relative term. What variety, size, quality are you looking for? What price range do you consider cheap?

What I consider cheap Discus usually contradicts my wife's thoughts on the subject.

If you could tell us what you are looking for and where your located, I'm sure you'll get plenty of recommendations.

Good luck. :)

A hobbyist living nearby would have cheaper discus and no shipping.
