LF: Discus Breeders in Alberta

Recommended Posts

Looking for Discus Breeders in Edmonton or even Alberta for that matter, does anyone have any links or info?

There are a few out there - at least one in Calgary (I have seen his fry at auction). Lots of people try to breed discus, few are succesful or last. I eventually would like to breed - as a natural extension of the hobby, but not to make money.

To give you an idea of the experience and time it takes, one of my mentors "Spidey Steve" on the forum took 3 years straight to raise, pair, breed and have a viable school of juvies.

Are you an experienced breeder? What are you hoping to achieve? Where did you get the nice cobalts that were for sale?

There are a couple discus breeders in ACE, and the owner of Family Pet Centre in Sherwood Park breeds (or used to) discus.

Not an experienced breeder what so ever, lol but wish to gain the experience. I just want the satisfaction of the knowledge to breed them, and quite possibly want to share the discus with other ppl.

the other discus that i had recieved, i got at such a sweet deal i couldnt pass it up. But had to let some go to make room for more fish. My Sankeskins are laying eggs right now but it is also the first time they have laid them. so hopefully soon i will have some to share.

Yeh, my fish came from Kenny's Discus and my experience has been incredibly positive so far.
