1) Haplochromis sp. "Uganda Fire Red" (http://www.cichlid-forum.com/profiles/species.php?id=1552): very beautiful and really rare victoria cichlid. Around 1 inch in length, male tend to be bigger than female but they are too young to be sexed right now. $5/piece, 10 fry for $45. Father of the fry:

Local pick up in Boston/MA area, but shipping is also available through USPS priority mail (no guarantee) or overnight/FEDEX (life arrival guarantee). Buyer pays the shipping fee plus $3 packing fee (box/breather bag/72 hrs heating pack).

Would be interested in trading for some "Calico longfin pleco" fry/juvies.

PM if any interest. thanks!

Still have some "Astatotilapia latifasciata" fry and red zebra fry left.

PM if interested! Shipping is available.

Those look more like juvies than fry

big difference because fry are almost impossible to ship.. whereas juvies will do fine

Those red zebras are about 1 inch, some are bigger, some are smaller. I guess they look bigger because of the close shot.

I alwasy call fish "fry" if they are under/around 1.25 inch and their adult size is 5+ inches. While some people do call them juvies, but in my opinion, juvie should be at least 1/3-1/2 of their adult size.

I did ship cichlid fry and pleco fry many times without any problem, even through USPS priority mail in winter/spring time. They were about 1/2-3/4 inch when I ship them. To be honest, I would like to ship fish under/around 1 inch. They will have bigger chance to survive than larger ones, but this is just my experience.
