Hoplias "black" Just realized these black wolves look different than the last ones I brouht in from Brazil. These have a obvious sharper face and mouth, more like a lacerdae, but the larger size looks more like a curupira what we call black wolf. You can see pictures of comparison on my blog.

hydrocynus goliath the season is ending and no more after next month, after the seaon is over, prices will go up
5" $100.00 only a few left
Protomyzon pachychilus 1.25" rare chinese panda loach I encourage people to get groups and try to breed them as the wild population is threatened due to development over habitat. They are easy to keep, eat pellets, peaceful towards each other and other fish. even at full size of 2.5" they still retain rather striking black and white pattern. Some hillstream loaches have been bred already, so I don't see why these cannot be bred. $50.00 each

Some cichla, not the rarest,
some plecos,
some cold water loaches
some giant monsters
the afer knives
some perch
groupers,

super rare eels, must have, will go fast

catfish from the depths of the earth
and more fish coming next week from China
one of the largest species of this group
one large predator
some super cold water stuff
some stuff from the Yangtze river, big river stuff
Stay tuned, I hate to be so vague, but with DOA and supplies, I have to...
Happy weekend and fishkeeping!
