Weeksii or buetikofferi a.k.a gold dust??

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Basically treat the ornate, weeksii and tuegelsi all as you would lower jaws. These are the big boys of the upper jaw world.
 
Just to theow this out there toyin had small congicus last time i spoke to him
 
I have a buettikoferi and it's taking a long time to grow. I've had him quite a few months now and he's grown maybe an inch. Ugh. Beautiful patterns and colors though and fairly aggressive compared to my others.

I had the opportunity to get a weeksii last week (my LFS actually calls me now to ask if I'm interested in whatever poly he comes across lol) But decided to hold out. They are nice looking, but I've got a few others I'm interested in getting first (Teugelsi at the top of the list. Why are they so hard to find?!?!). The photos here are making me regret my decision a little though

Yup teugelsi is so hard to get, i saw some in the MFK for sale but its only for pickup, and they are already big.thats why they are the last on my list, once i collected the once i want.
 
Uncle teds had one and that's where DrB got his teugelsi from. Can be shipped too. Can always call and ask.

Uncle Ted? Or uncle Ned? I have an uncle ned about... 4 hours away in Mass but he's asking $400 for his Teugelsi and that's just out of my range right now. I am looking into shipping one that I found cheaper. Fingers crossed

Besides the teugelsi, until I can upgrade my tank again, I'm looking for a nile, del and possibly a moke, but those too are a bit harder to come across.

Uncle Neds?? Is that a store or website??
 
Sorry my iPhone's autocorrect is killing me. It's uncle neds fish factory. He had some wc teugelsi that DrB ordered from there. It was shipped to him since he lives down south.

One thing to think about is weather you want WC or CB teugelsi as well. Almost all the time the cheaper Teugelsi are CB. IMO the high prices are worth it.
