Where abouts in london you from? Ring 'em up probably a bit late for tonight but they are very friendly and if they don't have some they'll order them in for you

HiYa and welcome kz007,

I'd say use a reputable dealer that allways keep them in stock. Have a look in the adds at the back of Practical Fishkeeping magazine.

Beware though discuss are much more demanding on water quality than other tropicals and will require strict maintenance and weekly 25% water changes with RO water....and mature tank,,,

do the research and get the set-up right from the start.

Beautifull fish though and well worth the effort. Look fantastic if combined with a large shoal of neons/cardinals B)
