Hi

Wendy Do you have a cichlid society where you are?? If so contact them and they will give you some names of breeders of discus.

You could try the aquatic habitat in gloucestershire, they have some nice discus in fairly regularly, adults and youngsters, loads of colour phases, so its about a 40 minute drive from you.They also got voted britians no2 shop this year.

In notts is Wharf Aquatics (pinxton) they came in 18th in the best aquatic shop ratings, you could give em a call on 01773 861255 and ask em what they have in stock.

What about getting some online? There are a few sites where you can get them or even individuals.
