    And what you just talked about Gabe is exactly why I ignore 99% of everything I see and read on the various Discus forums talking about how difficult it is keeping wild caught Discus. Again, the myth is de-bunked. Thank you Gabe and keep the vids coming.

      @@Luccon You’re somewhat correct. However, my lack of larger-sized tanks would disagree with you🥴. When I finally keep Discus, I prefer tanks larger than 55-ideally, 125 or more. In my opinion, they should be given a chance to grow to their fullest potential size.

    These wilds are exceptional Discus for sure. 👍
    Now I don’t mean this as a criticism in any shape or form, but tell me if those kind of numbers, 3,4,5 + 6 hundred wild Discus, and that’s just what you receive, taken from the Amazon river and their contributory rivers, how can that be sustainable, or is it just seasonal collections (licensed or not) 🤷‍♂️

  • @santosleeli
    @santosleeli Год назад +1

    Gabe would love your thoughts - why are wild discus still being caught? With so many captive bred varieties, why do we still pull discus out from their wild habitats. I imagine most perish and don't make it (?).

    • @MusicLovinWoman
      @MusicLovinWoman Год назад

      Gabe will have best answer…but here’s my 2 cents…I believe it’s the genetic purity of the line. Many aquarium species are being kept alive -existing because of alert aquarists. (Example rainbow fish from New Zealand). With gold mining and deforestation happening all over the world many fish species have already been lost.
      These pure discus lines are preserved by aquarists who know the dangers posed by “civilization.” Aquarium keepers = caretaker preservationists.

      Wild fish actually help the locals in the region live and survive. They take care if the environment and water ways because it's their source of living. Pulling wild fish from the rivers also helps keep the rivers in check. If we want to support this hobby we all should be buying more wild fish
