Hi all,
After a long break from keeping Discus because of family matters (AKA kids), I'm back on the forum and taking it slow this time. Before I had several tanks running, water changes at 4AM, Beefheart making weekends etc. Now I'm starting with 1 75 Gal with a 40 Gal sump. I decided that I would do it right this time and not rush things and make a journal of getting back into the hobby. ATM, the tank and sump sits in my basement and when I get time from work and daddy duties I try to get things ready for my first new batch.
Couple initial thoughts coming back after being away for so long....Lots of suppliers are out of the game.....Vern, Upper Canada Discus, local breeders?? Not many ppl are into fish....Hmmm
Second hand tanks are expensive LOL, dollar a gal is not even a thing anymore....
Anyhoot, I'm going to post my tank journey as it comes and hopefully find some local breeders to help me with stock. I'm looking for wilds this time, still into the wattley green tefe or semi red tefe greens, but if you have supply in and around Ontario I'll take a look
BTW, happy to be back

We have a couple decent suppliers here but I would assume age got to them as they were already up in age. When I had my tanks I had stock from Vern Archer and some from Stendker. @liz if you're willing to ship send me a pm and we can talk further.
