Well where do I start?
I have been keeping fish from about the age of 10 when my father made me my first Fish tank and also being a keen fisherman from a young age. Fish have pretty much been a part of my life. Keeping a variety of fish throughout the years discus hadn't been part of my fish keeping till a year ago. As my wife had asked me various times let's try keeping discus but my stubborn ways kept me from keeping them, having been led to believe it was hard to keep them I was on the verge of giving up the hobby completely I had lost all interest. I had finally given in to my wife and decided to go ahead and try keeping Discus.
I done my research and discovered Stendker Discus and then I found Mark Evenden who has become a friend I can rely on. He has a wealth of knowledge. I now have one of the best Stendker tanks in the uk and have become well known for my Stendker tank not just here in the UK but across the Facebook community. and I must say discus fish have taken over my life all for the best of course! Hands down the best fish I've ever had the pleasure of keeping.
I suppose I should of listened to my wife all those years ago haha.
Since then I've been a big influence on getting other people in to keeping Discus as well. I also run my own discus group along with others.
