Mpimbwe about 1.5 - 2 inches. The total was $77.50 for 6 shipped.

6 x $10 = $60

$5 box, heat pack, double bagged with oxygen.

$12.50 for the shipping.

The Mpimbwe is one type of Zaire Blue Frontosa. Another Zaire is the Moba, which is much more expensive.

Let me know how your experience turns out.
 
Hey MaJiKTeRRoR I got them today before I can into work. The fish look great and show blue color in their fins already! They are Mpimbwe and are closer to 1.5" but look healthy. This guy must be a pro for sure. His buddy did the bagging for him with the O2 and heat pack and everything. The shipping didn't cost much cause he is in Va and I live in MA. He sent it regular ground shipping at 5 PM Tuesday night. I got the fish this AM around 7:30. The bag water was warmer than my tank water which is set at 78. He didn't feed them since Saturday night which helps keep ammonia down and he also used something called bag buddy. Not sure what that is but it turns the water blue and it's supposed to help keep them alive somehow. Over all it worked out great for me. BTW he is also selling 3" fry for $20 each.

FYI, Mpimbwe are not a Zaire type, they come from Tanzania. Very nice fish none the less. Congrats on the new fish. How about some pics?
