I spoke to him the other day. He and his partner bought the building across the street from the old shop where they were renting. Bills will be hugely less. So for all of you who still remember him and care about him, Cary and his fish store will live on.

Cary raises those awesome gold discus? right?

He used to have killer White Butterflys and he had some to die for butter yellow solids. He has a fish store now. It's a different type of buiness. He's no longer catering to the Discus elite. But he's still around and doing well. He said he may make it to ACA, but although I know he'd love to I don't think that he will.

Nice, he mentioned getting some fish a while back. Haven't heard from him since then.

Hope all is well on his end!

The first decent group of discus I ever owned I ordered from Cary by phone many moons ago. He did have killer fish back then. I have fond memories of them. Glad to hear he's still doing well.

Yes, the elusive pure yellow discus! I talked to Cary a little while ago. He [in a moment of confusion?] sold ALL the yellow breeders to an aquaintance. The guy is not up on breeding care and hasn't g0tten anything out of them since he got them. Cary was thinking to see about getting a couple pair back and see if he can get them conditioned and breeding again. If that happens, trust that I already have an order in! Not holding my breath but geez I would SO love to have a good big bunch of these yellow babies to grow out. These fish are just gorgeous.
Currently I have farmed out or sold off most of my discus. Lots going on on the home front, I had to take a break.
Best regards, and I am still around,
Harriett

Wow. The first discus I ever bought were from Cary. They were beautiful. No chance he will breed again?

He did such a nice job.

I just cannot forget that pic he took after that disaster with his fish one day. Dead fish all on the ground. :(
But stuff happens.

Regards,

Wow great news. A few weeks ago I wanted to take my friend to Choice because he is starting to get into the freshwater hobby. When I got there I looked in the store was empty and then I looked on SD someone posted that they were not moving and just closing. I was freaking out because many stores in my area were closing and I thought I was really running out of options. Plus I really only got to talk to Cary once and he is like and infinite source of info. Thank you for letting me know I am relieved.
