DSICUS CATALOGUE
There are more than 600 photographs in this catalogue. Every one of them was professionally taken, carefully screened and selected to provide our readers with a clearer and better understanding of Discus varieties.
The content of this book is based on author's experience and personal opinion. Due to the complexity of the Discus varieties, some specimens may have certain features and names that are different from what is described in this book. Nevertheless, as long as they have the same characteristic, they should be classified as the same variety.
The objectives of this book are to:
• Provide the latest information on Discus varieties to the Discus enthusiasts.
• Categorize all the Discus varieties based on their characteristics.
• Explain the possible ways on how each variety may be created.
Due to the versatile nature of the Discus fish, more varieties will be created in the near future. The author intends to provide information on these new varieties as and when it becomes available.
In order to provide a comprehensive and up-to-date guide to Discus enthusiasts, updated editions of this book will be published from time to time.
These books will be available at SLS to purchase at $75ea from this weekend!! SLS will be distributing these books in the new year.
