I have a shot at it and I might get it too. Just wondering if you guys think its worth buying and making room for a juvie group. They are very rare fish and are seldom seen available and if I were to get them, I would have to clear out some tanks for them. Hmm..... I have to rethink this. Help me out guys.

I would say if you have the money, get them and clear out some of your more "readily available" fish. Once you have more room, buy more of the fish that you got rid of to get the more rare fish. That is what I would do.

there actually not all that rare i can find them at several different places

Where at? I know many of the online vendors who carry some. :grinno: They are a rare species and people who owns some breed them and sells them to vendors who sells them back to people thus a cyle forms. ;) Plus this person lives just hours away so shipping will be inexpensive. :D Anyone who knows vics knows that this species is very well sought after and beautiful.

there always on aqua bid, and Live Fish Direct normally always has them too

I've never seen livefishdirect carry any.... But the ones on aquabid are the ones I might be getting. I gave him an email to see if he would reserve the group for me. :D And I've been on aquabid millions of times, and I've never seen dayglows up for auction.

I've been active on aquabid for years. ;) The price rarecichlids is charging is ridiculous, no wonder. LOL. I might be getting this dayglow group for sure. Still have to think about it over and over again.
 
I was considering the ones on aquabid myself. They are supposedly from a top notch strain. Just not sure if I want them either. I agree with tydus it is the first time I have seen them on there.
