    Give Darren Burgess a call. He's just down the road in Townsville.
    He has some of his stunning personal collection for sale in the "members classifieds" section

    I drive 2hrs to Sydney for my fish without hestitation.. The junk we have in the LFS near me are a crime against Discus keeping.

    Having seen pics of Darren's fish I'd definately make a day trip out of it

    4 hrs each way on the crappy Bruce highway isn't worth it for any fish

    There is an aquarium in town that stocks some of the best quality discus I have seen and has them regularly breeding in his shop tanks.

    As for the others, well............

    If we are talking about the same place on Mulgrave Rd then I think they would be worth every penny.
