I definitely will get another eel or two (Do they get along with one another??) but not until I get myself a more-or-less permanent residence in Mass - I do NOT want to move a 3 foot electric anything more than once :)
And yes, I am a maniac - keep me posted on the lungfish! Thanks!
This guy is great, for those who don't know him.

Hey man do you have any guesstimate on price for the tigers?

i would love to say a price but in actuallity i wont even no mysef till i see how many make it what freight is and other fees. importing isnt as easy as it sounds so i learned long ago not to set a price till they are in my tanks and healthy.

they have been missing in action...its not how i prefer business to be done, they delayed me for over a month and no word, this has put off my south american orders for to long, i cannot occupy my tanks with 200 tigers and 70 lungs and south american orders, we agreed if they sent wrong fish i wouldnt pay for them, maybe they were taking me for a ride and realize im not paying around with a four thousand dollar bill! so the next step is to continue doing what i do best and i wil be cutting off african imports. sorry guys i was very excited myself but as a business i cannot wait on these guys any longer, its not practical.

From a business sidepoint it sounds like it might be for the best. People who don't produce on time can ruin your business in a business where most people want stuff the cheapest and soonest they can get it. Just the way it works. Select few customers are loyal and the rest want it within days or they'll look somewhere else.
I need that SA order... ;)

yes it sucks because literally every fish that landed would be gone in a week and they dont understand this, but its not working out the way business relations should, and its holding up my normal business. sry for everyone who patiently waiting :(
