New fish shipment!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
$9 each at petsmart. They vary in size a lot there. Im kicking myself for not buying the ones i saw a month ago that were around 3" for the same price.

That works out at about £7 each uk which is pretty good. Over here i've seen most places charging about £10 each and they're little scrawny things about 1-2". So that would be about $13 US.
 
Yes ive only ever seen groups of 2 or 3 come up but this time there were 9 and i knew i had to be quick. Ive been pooking for something smaller then SD and bigger than blackskirts...i lost 10 out of my 11 rainbows to some kind of bacterial outbreak couple months back.
Oh Being a Canadian.... I found Live Aquaria onl8ne with high hopes, but to my luck they dont ship to toronto, BUT STILL i look at Divers Den 24/7 (3 TIMES EVERYDAY LITERALLY) and drual and cry at all the cool fishs, expensive, but cool eh. Was wondering if an American could help me get orders from live aquaria?

Yeah theyre usually very small and fragile when i get them at petsmart though. This is the first time ive bought a group and like i said lost almost half of them.

Theres a pet shop about an hour away thats had a beauty CL around 6-7" for $29 for a couple months. I just cant find the time to go get him.

I have just now started to familiarize myself with shipping fish. Im certainly open to ideas, but I dont know if it would work well to ship them to me, then to someplace else immediately after...it would at least double the time in transit and i would worry about the health of the fish. I just dont know how long theyre supposed to last in those bags.

Perhaps when i learn a bit more about how to do it properly i could get the fish, stabilize them here in my tank for a week, then ship them out again.

That sounds possible, how much would you guess the extra price
