malawi sand diver Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Does anyone keep these guys? I reckon they look awesome and am thinking of getting some. They are a specialised crevice feeder, hence the long snout. I read that there was some juvies for sale later on in the last major auction. I am looking to get a trio. Does anyone have these for sale or have some info or pics of ones they've got? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 St George Aquariums has a stunning colony to breed from. Check wwith them to see if they have fry yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malawi sand diver Posted October 25, 2010 Author Share Posted October 25, 2010 Thanks heaps Andrew. They are closed today but I will give them a call tomorrow to have a chat. I've never been to St. George aquariums before, but I might call in there to check them out. Regards, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SydneyMike Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 When I first read this I thought it was for L. auritus! Oops. Good luck in your search for acuticeps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 There are a few people around with them now, I'm not saying they are common but don't rush to pay full retail. See who comes out of the woodwork first Never a bad thing supporting fish shops. That do so much to support this hobby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SydneyMike Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 In the abstract yes, but practically speaking it's not so clear. My point wasn't that LFS are evil and gouging yadda yadda yadda, but that if there are people breeding them on here, why use the middle man in this particular case?

malawi sand diver Posted October 25, 2010 Author Share Posted October 25, 2010 OK Cheers Mike Its good to see there is a few around now, I'll keep on the lookout before I pay full price. I'd be happy with smaller ones as I've got a couple of tanks. Regards, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
