Well thats it... I finally bit the bullet and ordered my discus from Kenny's Discus in Daly City SF. After doing my research I found out that a lot of people have dealt with him in the past and that he consistently has good stock and is a great guy to do business with. With a little to no prodding from Debbi (pinkertd) I was convinced to get my fish from him. Just got off the phone with him earlier and I placed my order in. It will be shipped tommorow and coming in on Friday morning. I have my grow out tank all set up and I'm good to go. Here's a couple of pics from Kenny's sponsor page on the simply discus forum of the strains I will be receiving:

1 Blue Diamond
1 Cobalt
2 Leopards Reg Grade
1 Checkerboard Pigeon

Can't wait to get them.... Thanks all for looking... :headbang2:

Hey Marl, I hadn't seen any posts from you lately so I was wondering what you had decided. You will be sooooooooooo pleased with your fish, no doubt about it. And keep the cell phone on, Kenny will call you several times to see how they are doing. How many sellers do follow up! I am so excited for you!!! Can't wait to hear back from you after you get them. Please tell Kenny I said hi and my discus are all fabulous and I haven't traded in my couch for another tank....yet!!! Wish I had more room, I'd have another dozen!!!
 
You're in for a treat! I've never ordered from him, but I heard he has very good stock.

keep an eye on your water params your dkh and dgh are pretty low.
are you using RO water?

my source water is soft.. the dkh is 3-4 and the dgh is 6

but with the kh at 3-4 the water is stable
 
nope its straight from the tap...
should i add baking soda to it now?
