Freshwater Discus Fish

FOUR Gorgeous Hans Discus & ONE from a local breeder Available....All are less than 2 years old (one is not even a year old) with typical reported lifespans of approx. 10years or more. I grew these out from 2.5" ... More information about them at the bottom of this list.

{*}Silver Pigeon Blood is roughly 7" from tip to tip --> $129
{*}Blue Pigeon Blood is roughly a hair over 6" from tip to tip --> $129
{*}Red Pigeon Blood is roughly 5" from tip to tip --> $75
{*}Yellow Pigeon Blood is roughly 4" from tip to tip (this one is not quite a year old and is from a local breeder) --> $40
{*}Blue Diamond has the most drastic color change, especially when spawning and is an absolute stunner then and roughly 5+" and the least cooperative to get a rough measurement. This one will need some recovery as it hasn't learned that mucking with the breeding pair results in war waged by the female. --> $15
