bought two discuss by post, poor things were nearly on deaths door and they are not cheap either. after 3 days lost one of them however the remaining fish survived and is okay however i would not buy by post ever again i believe it is cruelty.

With total respect Mick....there are certain fish that will do well via mail order and certain fish that won't. Discus will not. Even if they were the last fish on earth, i would not buy Discus unless i'd seen them feeding and happily swimming about.....and had a chat with the dealer about water conditions etc etc !!!!!

So is it cruelty selling them or plain stupidity buying them ?

I just got 25 Rasbora Espei from them for £30 delivered. All alive on arrival and 5 days later still looking good Read loads of bad things about them r.e. delivering via the post but these came via courier so maybe they have changed their method of delivery

Either way I am very happy
