i think we should where possable only raise fish of good quality .

when i first enterd the discus milarky i thought spawns of 100 + every couple of weeks £££££££££ someone's on the make .i now find out those 100-200 spawns are often heavy culled down to 30 or so best fish.

i knew i should have kept convicts lol.

i can go into a bit more about the breeding and culling and i know some breeders cull healthy fish just because they have the wrong number of bars on their side.
more about that later if anyone is intrested.
as long as the fish are healthy , and whoever had them, didnt breed from them I cant see any problem in keeping them ( maybe im entirely wrong and just a softy at heart lol)
