Scarecrow Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Im Not having much luck finding these guys? With exception to in one LFS which want $45 for a pretty small juvie. Does anyone know where i could get them from? Ideally im after a male and maybe 2-3 females, but unless they can be sexed, im after 6-8 that i could grow to the point of being able to sex them. Id even be happy to arrange a courier from an interstate breeder if need be... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E4G13M4N Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 They have been hard to come by lately, and pricey when shops can only get them from wholesalers if they cant get from a breeder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarecrow Posted December 2, 2011 Author Share Posted December 2, 2011 thats pretty steep for shipping, i have to say i wasnt expecting it to be that much. Bloody australia post! Looks like im just going to have to wait it out and hope they become available closer to Newcastle. I have had some tips about shops in Sydney selling them, but most seem to be in the very south west of Sydney, which is like a 3-4 hr drive each way.... by the time you take a tank and a half of petrol into account, it would cost less to have them shipped at $60-80....So with these guys, are they just a pair breeder, or will they work in a harem of 1m:3f?

killiguy Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 BTW Australia post wont accept live fish. $80 would have been shipped via AAE on a plane mate Ive sent and received fish using Australia post more then 50 times.My post office looked into it as a Queenslander had some trouble.Maybe staff that dont know the true rules.Its a very convenient way for sending small numbers of small fish (killis,blue eyes small rainbows,bettas etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
