I wanted to start a new thread about how to get a Grade A discus.
What is a grade A discus?
Second, Who sells them? In the hormone section I saw numerous times mentioned that they dont even come to the US for regular people (like me) to buy.
How do you know who has grade A discus? Is there some sort of certification?
How do the people who have them, and breeders/resalers on this site, know that theirs are grade A and unhormone treated?
How can a buyer (like me) who WILL have to mail order be confident that he or she is not getting ripped off for craptacular fish? Is there a grade for fry?
I dont' have any discus now, and the threads about hormoning and getting crappy fish are starting to bother me...I don't want the poor things to die as soon as I get them. I've owned hundreds of other types of fish and never EVER heard any mention of hormoning, bad consequences or Grade A fish. I'm a hobbyist but still want "Great Discus" is that too much to ask?
