As a child, one of my favorite things to do was go to the zoo. Lions, tigers, and bears…oh my! Of all the exhibits and animals to see, the tigers were by far my favorite. How can you beat the thrill of seeing such a dangerous animal up close, while simultaneously being safe enough away from it? You’re free to take all the time in the world to gaze upon him without the fear that he’ll eat you at any moment. I’d stare hard through the bars of the cage, soaking in every detail of the tigers’ glorious stripes, fearsome claws, and sharp teeth.

As I watch the light glint off the Trombeta Blue Royal as he darts around in his tank, I am reminded once again of those majestic tigers at the zoo. This fish has the same bright orange and yellow exterior, streaked with stripes of black, that takes me back to those times at the zoo – the tank alike, in many ways, to the cage that held back those regal tigers all those years ago – and I can’t resist adding this fish to my own tank at home.

    The shipment of the fish to my home was absurdly bad. These are big fish 5-6 inches in diameter and they were packed in a plastic bag barely that width with no more than 6 inches of water in them. The first fish must have thrashed around and punctured the bag when the UPS driver left the box containing my fish on its side in front of my house. Luckily I was home but when I opened the first bag the fish was upright with its head out of the 3 inches of water left in the bag! The other was under water but both were super stressed and I didn't think the first would make it but he did and now both are doing well. Looks wise one is similar to the Wild Trombeta Blue Royal Discus pictured on this site but the other looks like a completely different fish. I still love them but I didn't receive what I expected and I still can't wrap my head around the shipping methods. As such I have to say disappointed is the best characterization of my experience. I was in panic mode and by myself so I didn’t have time to worry about pics when I was opening the bag with just a few inches of water in it. I took a video of me opening the second bag which is attached and am also a few pics of the fish in my he quarantine tank. Note coloration. Nothing like the pics but obviously fish were super stressed. We shall see. Fresh arrival & day-after photos attached. Notice the stark contrast. From Michael: Paul, I'm sorry about your terrible experience with UPS. Unfortunately, I have no control over UPS delivery drivers disrespecting people's property, and it seems to be an increasingly common occurrence these days. Please keep me posted, and I will rectify all inconveniences caused by transit-related issues. Rest assured your fish were matched correctly. Slight variations and differences due to lighting, ph, diet, and individuality are to be expected.

    Hey Michael, I just got the shipment in earlier today. All the fish came alive and are doing amazing. These fish are bigger and more colorful than I could’ve ever imagined. I can’t wait to be able to watch them for hours and hours.  Thank you so much for your quick responses and working with me. I understand you hand selected these fish for my order so I wanna thank you again for choosing true specimens. I look forward to ordering with you again in the future. Thank you again Michael! Sincerely, Alec
