To be totally honest there is not a single good discus shop in the gong..i know of a couple of breeders but i have never personally seen there fish. My advise is to come to sydney! :)

Ill be honest mate, SLS prices arnt the cheapest,,but there quality of their fish is outstouding!!! you wont regret getting any from them...

Ladyred, Ben, Crocky and nicholas76 may be able to help you with getting some discus but are all located in Melbourne...

Just scroll through the classifieds and im sure you will find some discus for sale that are too your liking... :wink:

LOL a bit difficult speaking to Kev at the moment, when he's living in Malaysia, but George or Michella (the owners) should be able to help you.
