Actual Discus.com Customer Reviews, Ratings, & Tank Photos

"Fulfilling my customers' wildest discus dreams inflates my ego like a balloon."
-- Michael Li, "King of the Aquarium" and Creator of Discus.com

Discus.com is the only e-commerce website on the internet that provides actual customer photo reviews for purchased fish. Our review portal is the most advanced of its kind, and we offer this feature not only because we are extremely confident in our products, but we also feel that it's important to provide customers with a real sense of what ownership is like. New reviews are published weekly. Hit CONTROL + R on your keyboard or the refresh button in your browser to reload this page. Join our newsletter and never miss a beat.

Our wonderful community and loyal customer base is what makes us as great as we are. Check back often for new fish and fun aquarium ideas. Leaving reviews is a fun way to earn coupons for future purchases as well as to share your experiences with the discus community. Enjoy this unboxing video customer Suzanne T. from Canton GA made of her experience. Her full tank photo and written review may be viewed here.

In addition to providing our viewers with delightful aquarium design ideas, these photographs are intended to illustrate the variability and wide spectrum of a fish's appearance. Factors affecting appearance include temperature, stress level, diet, aquarium shadow level and substrate darkness (the less and lighter, the more colorful the fish will be), in-water vs out of water, as well as differences between baby discus and adult specimens. Also, as discus enthusiasts, most of our customers are NOT professional photographers. Please keep these points in mind when enjoying the gallery.

All fish are doing fine Packaging was great. I do a water change everyday now since they will be in here for a month or more. I bumped up the temp as instructed to go to 88. Almost there. Thanks for shipping the frozen worms out right away.

Currently here acclimating the fish! This is a 200 gallon tank I set-up and scaped for a client, it currently has ember tetras, cardinal tetras (my client asked for more, so i bought more from you!), emerald dwarf rasboras, oto cats, and kuhli loaches. This tank is in the break room of an office building, and the name of the company is “Blue Ram Group” so my client wanted a group of blue rams.

Hi Michael!




 


Thank you so much for reaching out. I am Ruxin who’s bought Metronidazole from your shop. I have a discussion has been fading away for 3 month. She is extremely skinny now. And we used all kinds of methods: Cipro, copper, Potassium permanganate but they all don't seem to work.  We have been dosing the metro starting this Monday. Really hope this work as this is her last chance….


 


We suspect that our tank has hecamita all the time. Because our discus just keep dying one by one. Here are some photos of how she progresses.




 


Any comments or suggestions will be appreciated!


 


Best,


Ruxin

DO NOT BUY UNTIL YOU READ THIS. I want to tell you about a BAD GUY named Michael. I ordered over $400 of fish. They arrived in poor shape and within 6 hours they were dying. I texted back and forth until he ends with contact me in the morning. In the morning all the fish were dead, not only all the fish he sent, me but his fish infected all my fish.  I didn’t know about his reputation until it was too late.  He has blocked me on text and he has blocked the review page on his website so I can’t put up a bad review.  I took pictures of the dead fish, and my bank immediately refunded ALL my money for his disgusting product. He is also a very nasty guy. He told me I was not intelligent and uneducated, in fact he said “Maybe you cooked the fish so you could eat them.” He ended with “I am the largest dealer in America and I would not be the largest if I gave my customers refunds." You have been warned.





From Michael: Ken, your review has indeed been published on Discus.com. Mr. Ken Taboh placed 2 separate orders with us: on April 24, 2024 and May 2, 2024. First order went great, and he ordered again on May 2. The second order contained 2 discus, a snowball pleco, 16 neons, and 3x clown loaches. 6 hours after arrival of the 2nd order, he texts me about white film on the body of the discus. This is pretty normal, as fish will incur ammonia burns as well as normal wear and tear during transit. I tell Ken to use Paraguard and the white spots should fully heal within a week. He agrees to keep me posted. The next morning, Ken texts me informing his entire tank has perished overnight -- including all of the tankmates and the discus he received from me in his first order. Immediately, he demands a full refund for both orders -- even for the previous order in his possession for over 2 weeks. Unfortunately for Ken, this isn't how we operate. We advise all customers to read our Return Policy prior to submitting their order.

All 3 discus arrived safe and sound! This was my first time ordering fish online so I was a bit nervous, but they're doing well. I have them in a quarantine setup and they're still a bit shy. Offered some food to them today but they didn't eat yet from what I saw. Will try some bloodworms tomorrow, I have other discus and that's what got them eating. Thank you very much. :)
