well as some of you may now , or may not, for one month or more the orinoco has closed up, well its coming to an end, i have a deal going with a supplier for me, i get all the fish he supplies, and no one else in usa, not saying more fish for other guys wont come, dont get me wrong , there are 4 exporters there, however i have all the list, my prices i pay are top notch, so from here on out them and i will be working close together, expect an order every other week, for some of you that know the river, just think ven and columbian fish, soley nd strictly at MA for lowest price possible, june 30th it opens, get ready all. i like to keep everyone informed, i dont think of it as having other sellers get a "jump" not even a scare to me, i provide top fish at low prices, so all i can say is get ready!!

maxinout13
06-28-2007, 4:32 PM
lymiq i will request them for sure, tigrinus are protected now, if you want to get them they must be "smuggled" im not into doing bad business, if i come across some you guys will be first to know, on the geo i sent the email over and pm'd ya back , flower rays TRUE will be in next order, 2-4 are coming, they must be feeding before i ship and that will be at my discretion, i will not send a fish that doesnt eat, he must be a fatty ;)
