big als in richmond has them. around the 2 inch mark. i can get 5 inchers. i had them before, they are a hit and miss. majestic shelters can get quite aggressive as well. they also nip fins.

Let me know if you want one i think it's over a foot long,It is with an SR right now so he is used with arowanas and had no problems with them.

@Mike

I love disto's but have had nothing but fail with them over the years..

I started with small ones.. managed to get a 3" to 12" then it died.
lost a couple small ones after that for various reasons..

got a 20" one a number of years back but it died during a heatstroke and apartment temp was 50c +

I got a 14" one most recently about 2 years ago, it was very aggressive to my phoenix and nearly killed it so it went into quarentine untill I found a new home for it.. unfortunately I heard it died in its new home pretty quick..

I swore never to get disto again after that.. as beautifull as they are, and "majestic shelter" in feng shui, I just can't make it work..

Totally agree. The aggressiveness is pretty unpredictable as well.
