The checkerboards are the only fish that look special to me, the rest are very average. I think the Simply sponsors, Kenny, Hans, Dan, blow these fish away. My opinion only.

No Hater Hector, I've bought fish there and they were excellent, just this batch doesn't look so impressive. I know you were a shill for them over at DAAH and I'm just giving my opinion. By the way, DAAH ever coming back?

i know about them 2 petshops downtown the one on delancey st & the one in between grand & canal they are over priced i wouldnt go there only because they are over priced other than that no complaint..

Dan
03-14-2010, 07:37 PM
yeah, there are 5 shops around there that i go to, one is decent, the rest are usually overpriced. one also sells stunted discus..but thats another story, lol.

Discus-Hans
03-14-2010, 07:45 PM
I think all their Discus come from a 5 Star Discus farm, if anybody wants to know what 5 star means PM me.

I will ask one of my Asian friends,

03-14-2010, 07:46 PM
oh yeah theres 5 around there that sell discus?i knew this other small one between grand and canal somewhere i think they closed ,, was looking for it a month ago couldnt find it thats when i ran into the one i told you thats on the corner and sell their discus way too expensive thought that was them maybe they moved.. but go to blue gold trust me in queens they very reasonably priced i think because they are the source alot these nyc petshops get their discus from .. you going straight to the importer source .. let me know how it goes call ahead ask for mr huang hes super cool and buy only when he s there..

Dan
03-14-2010, 07:50 PM

I should add that I purchased fish from the importer and had serious health issues. These were replaced via Blue Gold and the replacements had health issues. To be fair to Blue Gold, they had only come in a couple of days previously.

Yeah i remember about that whole unfortunate incident..its weird cause i had bought from that same shipment and nothing was wrong with the fish i got ,,you know me if there was something wrong i would been making a big deal about it even at risk getting banned lol ..but am grateful all the fish i ever bought from BG never had problems they been a pleasure to keep..
