    La Paz Aquatics

    I saw on FB that they are importing Santarem Discus from Brazil. I think he does not keep them and go to the buyers through pre sale purchase. Rodrigo from La Paz is a very nice guy and I purchased most of my L046 from him.

    Santarem is also Gabe's source at Wattley's, isn't it?

        I don't know I texted him through FB to find out about the Santarens. I have no Idea where Wattleys gets his Wilds but some have their watermark on the pictures. I do like the Tefe Greens on his web site.

            Not any more. Vitor stopped selling to Gabe several years ago.

              A lot of 'inside baseball' stuff! no?
              I'm more interested in grades ( A, B,or C?) offered, than availability of individual pieces.
              I worry about people willing to deal with unknown sources as their passion has them taking big chances. IMHO of course, JR

                Hi JR, these are wild discus vs domestic. As someone who keeps wilds I prefer to select my own fish when possible. However the wilds from Santarens is a bit above my pay grade

                  Rodrigo from Lapaz said that most already sold but he bought extras that he will be posting later this week.

                    Ah, thanks. Well then, this is good news-- that someone else is bringing them in.

                      I can confirm he is a reliable source I spent over $800 for L046's from him. With no issues and all still thriving after more than year.
                      I told him about our forum and that I posted his info maybe he wants to sponsor.

                        That would be awesome to have another wilds sponsor!! He'd also have free access to advertise in the FB group...

                            I use Chrome at work and it's ok but I just tried with Edge and it looks like he has a certificate issue. I will let him know but I have dealt with him for a a wile and he ids legit. He also has a presence on Facebook. Once you get past it the fist time it won't ask again.

                              Thanks for letting me know sometimes I think is our network that is locked down tight. Government work and it's surprising I can get on the forum but most pictures that are links I can't see at all.
                              I just texted him so he knows he has an issue.
