They are scared but seem to be coming out a little more. I guess I will wait to feed them once they come out?
Thank you, they are very handsome / beautiful.
True you guys have my favorite collection of discus and the best prices I could find I really appreciate you. Thank you so much Next time I order from you can you send me the dead fish it's only a pleco and one Orinoco they dead nothing I could do. From Michael: Yes, I will replace all DOA's in your next order.
Hi Michael, I was just considering ordering a bunch of non-discus tropicals for my other aquariums from you. Just budgeting it out a bit. All but the one discus that I got from you are doing well; the one that was in bad shape from shipment rallied with treatment at first, but then succumbed in a couple of weeks and died. The others are doing very well and are just beautiful.:It seems like some of them randomly decide to not eat for a couple of days and then are back to normal in a couple of days: concerns me at first, but now I guess it’s normal discus behavior. They reside in a 60 gallon high def tank with small schools of tetras and a few corys. Because it’s not a 10 gallons per discus size, I do ~1/3 water changes and gravel cleaning every 4-5 days and the temp is 85-86. I use a large fluvial canister and there’s a couple of air stones for goos circulation. They are fed a variety of frozen and flake/pelleted foods…their favorite seems to be freeze dried tubifex worms and those that decide to fast for a couple of days seem to always go for the tubifex when they are abstaining. They’ve gotten to know my face and hands and are far less jittery than they used to be; in fact, I can basically scoot them around the tank when I’m cleaning it and they don’t seem to mind it anymore. I really am glad I decided to give them a try at 64yo, as this was always a dream of mine since I was a kid, but I never had the resources to make it happen until recently….and now I have 5 aquariums going, including this one. Here’s a picture of the current state of the discus.
Nice fish, good packing. I will order again.
However, by the next day it was clear that it had significant fin rot and slime coat disruption (see picture). Some white fin borders started to present on several others as well. Per Michael's instructions after I contacted him , which were immediate-and much appreciated, btw, I started them on paraguard and this seems to have halted further disease progression. They are all eating voraciously and are quite active- even the one pictured, and I just love them and hope they all recover and grow. I'll continue to treat with paraguard and water changes until the fins clear up on all of the other affected ones.
I would advise anyone who orders these by mail to be prepared with medication; maybe even prophylactically dose on arrival. I was leery of getting discus this way- they clearly get stressed; hard enough on other tropical fish. But they were packaged double bagged with a black cover as well on each bag so I don't know what else could have been done- maybe another heat packet or two, but I'm not sure if even that would make the sloshing around in the box less stressful on these beauties. From Michael: The fish looks awful right now, but he should recover with continued Paraguard treatment. The single fish in question is suffering from transit-related stress. It's uncommon but does indeed happen from time to time when the fish have had a stressful journey. If he dies, I will replace him in your next order. Keep me posted.
Hey Mike! FANTASTIC as far as I can tell! They arrived 530 last night and I spent like 2 1/2 hours acclimating them as you instructed. I got everybody into the tank and did not have anybody that looked injured...so far, so good this morning. Seems they are getting used to everything and I think they are eating. I have been using no light...LOL!! So I'll be able to REALLY SEE everybody and everything Sunday night at 8pm. I'll give you a better update and pics. THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH!! I know that they are beautiful already because you picked them out!!! (Sorry this is so late to get to you...I tried calling you twice today...but again, I know your busy.) Catch ya on Monday morning with some pics after the REAL REVEAL!!!! I can't wait!!!!
Everyone is doing fine! They are getting used to their new home and no problems that I can see. You did a Fantastic Job Mike!! Thank you for all you have done!!
I am going start another tank In the near future. I would like some variety of color. Any recommendations?
Very pleased. Thank you so much.
Mr. Li - How you doing? Attached is a pic of the new guys. They are adjusting well but oddly my existing 4 are not.
Do you keep a log of what you have shipped to a customer so that if I order another 10 pack in future that you try not to duplicate and add to the variety? I have a 180 gallon tank and now have 13 discus in a community tank with schooling tetra fish and a couple of RoseLine sharks. Everybody seems to be getting along and trying to find their pecking order of whose boss and whose not.
