The major discus collecting areas are in Colombia, Peru, and Brazil - minor areas are found in Venezuela. But today discus are being bred successfully in America, Europe, the Orient, and even in Africa. No more is it necessary to endure Amazonian trips under conditions of strenuous trails, hand-over-hand clamboring, coupled with exposure to the frequent and unpredictable downpours. Those of us who have made these trips are certainly aware that "new blood" must be introduced into the worldwide discus breeding programs. This can be done, of course, by obtaining imports, or by venturing into the Amazon Valley to collect the discus. Please count me out of any more collecting trips! With discus becoming "international" I continually find in my mail letters from all parts of the world. (MP).
