Just got that email myself from Fosters & Smith. Someone in their marketing department should have researched a discus a little better before using this on their sales ad.

Haha, especially at their ridiculous prices?! You would think if your going to advertise a fish... Make sure you put in a pretty one right? I mean he's not just peppered... That fish is U G L Y, even if you don't know wth your doing haha.

I got the Catalog yesterday, and I was tempted to posted and share with simply you beat me. They have some other pictures showing of red fish with less peppering also. Definately they have some newbies there.
