Please allow me to publish this article, "Sydney Discus World Aquariums". I do not want to promote this store, but purely educate people, as it is a great attraction that people all around the world/Australia can come and visit for free. I will also add references and citations to this article which also relate to the general care of Discus fish. Please provide advice/suggestions on how I can fit this article into your editorial guidelines. I have pasted the text which I want to add to this article below:
Sydney Discus World Aquariums is an aquarium store, located in the city of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. It is located in the inner-west suburb of Homebush West. The aquarium specialises in A-grade Discus fish, Symphysodon, which is a genus of three species of cichlid freshwater fishes native to the Amazon River basin. They also stock a large variety of Tropical Fish, Goldfish, Koi and pondfish, African and American Cichlids, Saltwater and Australian Native fish. In the showroom, there are two massive Discus fish aquascapes, complete with rare Discus varieties, driftwood and native plants from the Amazon which include Amazon Swords and Anubias. Other key exhibits include an a African Cichlid and Marine fish display. The public are encouraged to visit the aquarium to view the aquatic life on display
Thanks in advance,

- Why can't I edit Wikipedia?
Because Wikipedia does not allow any form of spam or other promotion of people, products, companies or other groups (even non-commercial or charitable ones). Using Wikipedia for such purposes will result in the blocking of the account involved. Please read Wikipedia:FAQ/Organization and Wikipedia:Conflict of interest for our policies about this.
In addition, user accounts are for individuals only, not for companies or groups or other collective editing. Your username should reflect this. Usernames that appear to be promotional (such as those that make reference to a company or product) violate our username policy and are typically blocked to enforce that policy.
- What can I do now?
If you have no interest in writing about some other topic than your organization, group, company, or product, you will not be allowed to edit Wikipedia again. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead.
If you do intend to make useful contributions about some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:
- Add the text
{{unblock|Your reason here}}below this message box. - Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In this reason, you must:
- Tell us what new username you want to use. Please make sure that your new username does not violate our username policy and check that it has not already been taken (click here to search).
- Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the edits for which you were blocked.
- Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.
