Black Nasty in demand?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I sell them on occasion. Usually about $5 or so? You can maybe get $1-$2 a piece. Ask for a credit price or a cash price which is less given? Problem in retail unless they are specialty type store like mine but still many do not know the fish itself or can house them in smaller tanks or put them with a bunch of other fishes. It has to be a customer out looking for these types of fish.
I have beani, moto, festae etc.. in stock now but some do not move as fast as other fish & I have to feed them good & try to keep them from killing each other in the same tank. I as most can not devote a tank per fish that sell less then some.
Also to help the sale to the LFS give them a nice glossy pic of the parents so they can post what the fish will turn out to be when mature.
Selling in numbers you may move more online or a site like this.
Getting cold but Priority USPS is the cheap way to ship & if done right you can ship 4-8 fry in a small box well insulated with heat packs to most areas for less then $20.

Something fishy you say you got some festae. I'm looking for a male for my female right now but can't find one. You got any? I'll take a few if they are small. What size is the box you ship in and what do you insulate it with?
 
I usually do not ship much in the this time of year because its usually pretty busy although slow the last few weeks.
They are 1"+ 6/$48 in USPS Priority box w/heat & packing $20. so $68. shipped. I could ship out on Tuesday. MD you would probably get it next day because your close instead of two days.
I use a number of things to pack & ship. 1. Home Insulation, then foam/styro cut to fit or wrap fish. Mutli bagged. Heat packs, bag buddies usually but also have oxygen for big orders?
If you guys want them then you can paypal/email me at somethingfishyinc@gmail.com by Monday evening so I can ship out Tuesday afternoon. The weather is also suppose to get better this way so a little warmer will be nice.

thanks

I'm closing on a house this month, so I got to think if I want to get then shipped now or wait till I'm in the new house and its warmer. Are festae something you can always get in?
 
Black Nasty is definitely in demand down here. Please let me know when you're selling them. I'll gladly buy some.
