Hey Folks,
Now that football season is officially over the weekends will be fully busy for selling fish which helps out all of us. Lots of fun stuff to talk about this week including some brand new items (or at least new to us). But first if you're not already please check out all of our social media pages/posts and be sure to like and subscribe. And speaking of social media AquaShella Orlando is one month away where we will be displaying a bunch of goodies from right here off the farm so please be sure to stop by and say hi. If you've never been I would highly recommend attending. They put on a great show and it's the first one back in Florida in nearly two years. Lots of representation from all aspects of the industry/hobby.
Now onto the fish. First and foremost is an item everyone here is super excited about, Tricolor Gold Barbs. This is as far as I know a very new aquarium strain of the classic Gold Barb. Words don't describe it so fortunately I have a pretty decent pic of them down below. Another new(ish) item are the Blue Pinoy Angels. Now while these aren't new to the trade we haven't had this exact strain before. As the name would suggest they get a blue hue to them as they get older with reduced striping. These are incredibly popular amongst hobbyists, and the Pinoy type are the ones with the shorter more rounded fins that most people look super cool. And while the next item on the list is definitely not new it is also extremely popular, Uaru. These are far east tank raised fish and so far look perfect in every way. The only thing wrong with them is that they are very limited so act quickly if you want some. And if we're talking about popular as well as limited availability then we have to mention the Chili Oscars. Always a fan favorite.
Far east imports brought us some common items that have been in short supply lately starting with everyone's favorite micro Gourami, Sparkling. Haven't had these in months so they are sure to go almost immediately. Now while we have had Choprai Danios on and off the past few months this is for sure a batch you want to take notice of. These are some of if not the nicest I have ever seen. So bright you can see these little beauties from across the room. And speaking of bright, well maybe not yet but soon to be, we got in Redline Rasboras for the first time in ages. I included an archive photo which I don't normally like doing but I wanted everyone to see what these look like once they've settled in a bit. And in addition to those we also got restocked on Kubotai, Galaxy and Harlequin Rasboras.
From South America, I'm suprised to say that we still have large Blue Phantom Plecos. Now that they've had some time to settle in they truly are blue. Also showing off how spectacular they are the Colombian Zebra and Snowball Plecos are about as nice as they get. And rounding out the suckermouth category we still have some adorable Royal Plecos on hand. For something on the bigger side we might have 1 or 2 Blue arowanas available but that's all she wrote on those. Medium Silver Arowanas however still have pretty decent numbers on them and they're even on special this week. And speaking of being on special we even have some great looking Gulper Cats ready to gobble up anything you try putting with them. And last but not least we still have some medium Black Ghost Knives available. These are about twice the size of the far east raised ones and well worth the extra money.
I swear no matter how many we bring in we can never have enough in the of invertebrates. But at the very least we certainly have a good variety to choose from this week. For Shrimp we have some very nice, bright Delux Mix with many colors all together, and Pinnochios are in again too. Bamboo are just as creepy as ever. And Blue Diamonds look to have pretty good numbers on them. For crabs we got in more Vampires who by the way got featured on one of our socials this week so you should definitely go check that out. Red Crabs got another restock. And everyone's favorite pet rock, the Hermit Crab, are back in this week.
-Steven
