Actual Discus.com Customer Reviews, Ratings, & Tank Photos

"Fulfilling my customers' wildest discus dreams inflates my ego like a balloon." -- Michael Li, "King of the Aquarium" and Creator of Discus.com

Discus.com is the only e-commerce website on the internet that provides actual customer photo reviews for purchased fish.  Join our newsletter and never miss a beat.

In addition to providing our viewers with delightful aquarium design ideas, these photographs are intended to illustrate the variability and wide spectrum of a fish's appearance. Factors affecting appearance include temperature, stress level, diet, aquarium shadow level and substrate darkness (the less and lighter, the more colorful the fish will be), in-water vs out of water, as well as differences between baby discus and adult specimens. Also, as discus enthusiasts, most of our customers are NOT professional photographers. Please keep these points in mind when enjoying the gallery.

The fish are all alive and well! They look amazing. The only surprise was the golden lollipop not having much yellow color on it, but it is a beautiful fish none the less.

Hey Michael, Crystal here. Here's some pictures. They are in a temporary home right now as we're re doing the Amazon habitat with all new massive filtration. Unfortunately our German Red appears to have a bacterial infection but none of the others are affected. We're treating now with Maracyn.

Michael,



The discus came in beautiful. They traveled very well and became acclimated to my tank very quickly. The colors on the German Red Turquoise, Red Base are vibrant. As is the color on the Pearl Pigeon Snakeskin Discus. As always, I am very happy with my order and continue to recommend you in our discus community.



Thanks again,

Daniel

I ordered on Nov 26th. As of today Dec 10th my order has not yet arrived.

After reaching out to customer service I was told to track on usps (I had already done that several times). I asked if there was anything they could do to check on the order from their end since it’s been sitting in one city for over a week.

Customer service says once shipped it’s out of their hands, but if I’d like to reorder and pay for overnight shipping they’ll make sure it gets to me. That’s not great customer service.



It would have been nice if they even pretended to care about my order or me as a first time customer.

I will not be ordering anything further from this company.



From Michael: We will continue monitoring this situation. If you don't receive the package within this coming week, I will issue you a full refund or ship you a replacement. Once the package is in USPS's hands, it's out of our control.

I do not believe this is what I ordered. From Michael: Hi Amanda, you ordered baby fish. They will expectedly look different from my full grown 6” adults. If you want exactly what’s in the photos, you need to order larger fish. Rest assured your order was correctly fulfilled.
