I will be doing another order soon so this sale thread probably won't be up that long. Also, got a new smart phone which is challenging my technical abilities so responses may be more delayed than typical. Its hard to teach an old dog new tricks!


As always, express is preferred for fish. No guarantee on priority shipments for fish. If you choose express, I will ship on whichever day you like, but signature is required unless we have specified otherwise :) Defeats the purpose of express shipping if the package is still going to sit outside! As always, if you are looking for something I once had, ask, its possible there are a few kicking around the fishroom that I just didn't bother to list or I may have had a complete senior moment (I have alot of these).

Also, when pm'ing, please copy our pm's or repeat what you are interested in. With the new system, its hard for me to keep track of who is interested in what now that they do not auto-quote.

[XanAvaloni]

any akysis (aka bumblebee cats in case my spelling has taken the weekend off) left? You were getting low but if there are any remainng I will get. Along with other stuff. still have that box of styro cutouts to send in any event. :)

[msjinkzd]

yup! I have several left :)

[Big Mike]

Espei Rasbora? 5 or 6?

[Piranha86]

Do you think the Xenotoca eiseni's or the Ameca splendens's could live in light brackish? I'm looking for somethign else to put in my mudskipper palu (if I can ever get some) and I like these guys.

[msjinkzd]

Gosh, I have no idea. I have never kept brackish at all.

[Big Mike]

Espei Rasbora? 5 or 6? :)

[NB_Aquatics]

Have any dwarf cockatoos? Or any other apistos?

-Thanks

[pjrichar]

I will be looking for some apistos in few weeks, do you think you will have some then. if so what species I know you have vejita sp? I will prob get couple pair of them, but need something for my 55 gal too.

[Just Prince]

Will you be importing any more Boraras Merah?

[shewolfgeo]

Hey Rachel, how are the Dario bangladesh eating for you?

[Just Prince]

Hey Rachel, how are the Dario bangladesh eating for you? What are they eating. Trying to get mine to eat pellets.

[msjinkzd]

Espei Rasbora? 5 or 6?

I think I have 5 still, I will double check.

I have apisto viejita 2's, no cacautoides available right now but I do have some orange flash fry growing out that I haven't decided if I am willing to part with.


Will you be importing any more Boraras Merah?

Absolutely


Hey Rachel, how are the Dario bangladesh eating for you?

Well!


What are they eating. Trying to get mine to eat pellets.

They are eating frozen bbs, daphnia, cyclops, and golden pearls.

[jajabinx89]

Any rcs or cpd? (either now or in the next upcoming order?) :)

[Vince G.]

Hello Rachel. Do you ever get zebra otos?

[msjinkzd]

I haven't gotten zebra otos, though I would like to.

I will be ordering rcs and yellow shrimp as well as probably pinnochios. I am also planning on ordering more dario dario, cpd's, furcatas, chillis, otos, habrosus, amanos, maybe some sids and probably julii cories. I m igth also get some new microfish, something like the blue axelrodi rasbora.

[H2Ogal]

Some microrasbora kubotai would be awesome.

[msjinkzd]

yes i ordered them before, twice, and they have come in as the wrong species, lol. I will try again, but probably not yet :)

[Ph0enix]

Do you have any boraras brigittae, endlers, or calico ancistrus left?

[msjinkzd]

I have endlers and am ordering more chillis probably this week or next week. How many calicos? I might have 1 or 2 I can spare but wanted to keep a group for breeding.

[dudemeyer]

Any gold ring danios or tylo's left?

[evident]

Do you do local pickup? I am from bucks county PA.

I'm interested in easy live plants like the anubias and java fern, but would probably get some fish from you when my tank is fully cycled.

[msjinkzd]

boraras should come in this weekend. As for apistos, just hte viejitas and I doubt i will import any as they take up a lot of tank space but I am considering bringing in some more domestic groups in smaller numbers, probably cacautoides

[msjinkzd]

Any gold ring danios or tylo's left?

Just one lonely little guy (for goldrings). I do have juvenile tylos.

Absolutely! I am speaking at your local club in July as well. Local pickup is ALWAYS welcomed and you get a discount as well!

[blue2fyre]

I just found out the other day you are speaking at our club in November! Sweet!

oops, i didn't realize you were out in york, pa! maybe i'll just make a big order once my tank is fully cycled. shipping shouldn't be too expensive within the state i don't imagine...

[bgourami320]

Count me in if you can get any of the Zebra Oto's I'd definately love some of those.
Also do you ever get any Samurai Gourami's? I'd like to start up a species tank in the spring
for these guys. They are hard to find!

[msjinkzd]

I don't typically bring in gouramis as they don't play that well in groups of hundreds. I do have croaking gouramis right now though.

I am driving to Bensalem on sunday night (probably 7-8pm) if you wanted to meet, evident.

[pjrichar]

ok I will get couple pair of viejitas in couple weeks.. if you have any domestics by then I might get some too...
thanks

[dudemeyer]

Know if you're getting more gold rings any time soon?

[evident]

sunday works for me actually. Hopefully my cycle will be done by then... but if not, we could just do the plants. i'd probably also be interested in the cardinal tetras and rasboras if my cycle would finish though! maybe you can give me some media to speed it up!

[H2Ogal]

yes i ordered them before, twice, and they have come in as the wrong species, lol. I will try again, but probably not yet :)
Yep, I noticed that you kept ending up with microras. agilis (?) instead of kubotai. Thanks for trying! :)

[GEV83]

I purchased these items from Rachel on sunday they were shipped monday and arrived tuesday. 9 fish total and a gallon ziploc bag full of leaves.

looks very nice, but what are the leaves for?

Just shoot me a pm or email (msjinkzd @ gmail.com) <no spaces> to work out the details.

I tried again....we will see!

They are a natural water conditioner, add tannins, and apistos are naturally leaf litter spawners. Also, they produce infusoria which shrimp, fry, and many fish like to graze on. Just a natural way to add some goodies to the tank :)

[shewolfgeo]

Rachel are you able to ship on Sat.?

[evident]

ygpm

[SHWAGert]

You mention moss, what kind(s) do you have available? Do you have any xmas or star moss, or just java moss? Also I see you have Malawa and Amano shrimp, do you have any other varieties, perhaps something a little less common like Snowballs, Bee/Bumblebee, Red Nose, Greens/Dark Greens?

[msjinkzd]

Rachel are you able to ship on Sat.?

Probably not as my post office closes by 10am.


ygpm

I am tardy today, been a hectic one!

Just java that I want to part with at this time.

I have malawa, dark green babaulti, mixed babaulti (reddish to blueish/black), dwarf zebra (babaulti cf. stripes), amano, one or two bamboo.

I also have snowballs and RCS but my numbers are down to just breeding stock at the moment.

I have rednosed and yellow neos coming in sunday.

[shewolfgeo]

Darn that post office.. I work at my local post office, I should give them a call demanding them to stay open until 12am. lol.. Anyways..

I want to get some Dario bangladesh, but I may want some of those red nosed. Have you thought what you may sell them for? And about how long do you think they'll be ready to sale?

[msjinkzd]

I usually sell the rednosed for $3-4 each, it really depends on how they do as to how soon I can ship them out. I need to give them a few days of good food (algae all ready for them!) before I ship them out as they tend to be a bit fragile otherwise.

My actual local PO isn't even open on saturdays, I have to drive 6 miles further to the other one, which is only open for 2 hours, lol. I can drive into the "city" where there is one open later, but it takes half an hour each way. I prefer to just ship on monday as I have to fast the fish most of the weekend in preparation for shipping as it is, and if I ship saturdays, they end up being fasted for most of the week.
