Ok I'm getting a little closer to being ready to get my tank. I've done a lot of research and I think most of my questions have been answered. I intend to buy a 75 gallon tank and stock it with 6 or 7 discus. I'm intending to order them online and have them shipped. I will be getting 2.5 inch fish most likely. Will the small fish be ok in that big tank until they grow into it? Also I've narrowed it down to two fish suppliers both in the US. Jack Wattley Discus or Rocky Mountain Discus. Both seem to be professional and have a great selection. Jack Wattley is closer so maybe the shipping wouldn't be so hard on the fish. Does anyone have experience with these shops they could share. There are no places within my area to buy fish so I'm stuck with online. thanks

again, I personally know Kenny and he only deals with high grade fish. Both of these guys are easy to talk to and are fonts of knowledge.
