ive seen a breeding pair or kribensis for sale for 20 quid wich i fink is a rip off !

Yeah Tasha, just sa that and was going to post a thread myself. Saying that, according to the advert, they do 'love to show off and play around'

Totally over priced though, although if they were one of the more unusual breeds like the red ones, they would fetch a higher proce than normal.

Meant to ask - is that picture of a fish ill or is it supposed to look like that?
09-05-2007

Im my local fish shop they have some small discus. They are fully coloured up and are about 2 inches - and full of peppering. They are such funny shapes as well, almost oblong - nothing like round.

They are £49.00 each. They keep about 10 discus in a 2 foot shop tank.

What a rip of and such a shame that shops sell fish, that they seem to have no idea on how to keep.
