So one my local pet stores has the worst fish selection known to mankind. He literally has like 10 tanks with guppies and mollies and parrots. BUT, he has like a 9 page list of all the fish he can order. He just doesnt have the room to stock them so customers can special order lots of different fish.

So I just placed an order for a true Festae/Red Terror. His list says 5" size for $35. Only thing is i dont know what the sex of the fish will be, but does $35 seem like a good price for this fish??

Thx
 
Yeah I thought about that, but the list he gets from his supplier says "True Festae - Red Terror", so if its not, I'll just tell him that this is not what I ordered
 
just make sure the owner knows what the difference is then order it...if its not a true festae then it'll be okay.

ya you order a fish and then leave him stuck with it how would you feel if the shoe was on the other fin

uh excuse me? if i order a certain fish or item or whatever im ordering from a place you better believe i damn well expect to receive what i ordered. i normally stick up for small business owners but that comment you made was pretty stupid.

why should i keep the fish if its not what i ordered? makes no sense :screwy:
 
Not a great price but Ok.Rapps has 3.5 " FO Festae for 25,but of course then there is shipping.
 
wow i didnt mean it like that i am just saying make sure its the real deal thats all i used to work in a store and the list said true festae red terrors and they were uros so alot of the time suppliers dont know what they have
 
ah ok sorry man! i thought you meant that i should feel bad for ordering and then not keeping the fish if it didnt turn out to be a true festae :cheers:
