 Rest assured that this is not another scam. I have raised the Cichlid fish known as a Discus for over 15 years. I've read several books on discus, and they all "just don't seem to get to the answers you so desperately want to ask". It's a tell all type of book where you'll say "that's what I've been looking for".

***** I've decided to lower the price as I will only be sending this phamplet on discus via e mail attachment only. Shipping, printing, packaging, e bay and paypal fees make this the only way feasible. Based on that I've lowered the cost to compensate for the shipping costs. A person in Australia wanted the phamplet and the shipping alone was going to be $16.00!!! I e mailed an attachment...

 I see other discus books for sale and all to often they are generic. I like to pride myself on as many specifics as I can.

A testimonial "Just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed reading about your discus. I appreciate that you kept it simple. I think sometimes people overcomplicate keeping discus, I know it kept me away from them for a long time. I will use your phamplet as my "bible" on discus and would recommend it to anybody thinking of getting into discus."  Manny B.  (note, not a bound book  JSD)

This pamphlet is 23 pages of  8 1/2" x 11" standard print size. Oh and YES that's a picture of the discus in my 180 gallon show tank. Sent to you as an attachment, via your e mail, for you to download.

I have helped hundreds of people realize their dream of creating a tank full of discus. From the ease of care all the way to the breeding. You just love the first day the babies come off the cone and flock to their parents, but what if they don't? What is the all important way to raise them in those first fateful days that will make the all important difference? What type of food, how long, how much..............

We talk about the simplicity of owning discus and the simple techniques in maintaining them on a weekly basis. I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I've enjoyed writing this informative work about discus fish.                       

And I've added my e mail address to the paper if you ever have any questions. It's also a great way to keep people from copying the paper!

August 09.....  hi, i bought your discus pamphlet on ebay and im glad to say i made a good investment. i learned so much within 15mins of reading it and kept going back through as a reference. also been using 40% coupons to buy batting for my filters. thank you so much. i was also able to find sphagmum peat moss at a local hardware store-by a canadian manufacturer for $6 for a whole sack. i was expecting green moss but i got more of a dark soil texture. did i get the right one? please help. thank you for your time.
