Jim's Discus

[freespool]

Have any of you guys gotten fish from Jim's Discus in Arlington, TX. I like some of the fish they list. Thinking about taking a trip up there to check them out and maybe pick up some fish.

I haven't but with the quality/price/selection at HAW I don't see the point of driving that far.

Got all my discus from HAW before. Was in there today and just did not see what I was looking for. Looking for spotted discus. Jim's prices appear to be dang good from what I saw. Still looking around local though.

Gas prices to high for me.

He lives in friendswood. He's half way there... LOL Just kidding.

Those are some nice looking discus.

when are you planning to make this trip?

Not sure when I will go, no rush right now. I would make arrangements with Jim to make sure he had some fish I would want at the right size and price. Would make a weekend road trip with the wife out of it. Just want to make sure I good good, strong, healthy stock, that has the pattern and color I like. I have lost 4 over the past year due to being health compromised since receiving (still have 6). Don't want to risk it again.

if you go that way.. TCT/Thong has good stock also.. he is about 10 min away from jim.. and there are others.. ask jim when you talk to him about more contacts in the area to hit up.. to plan your trip
