Hey Folks,
Joe is out this week, but will be back on Thursday. So we're running a little short staffed right now as far as completing this email. If you have any questions about anything you see here or anything we missed highlighting, feel free to reach out to your sales rep.
Over the weekend, it looks like we did get a restock on some barbs from local vendors and the size is great on all of them. The stocklist had no tiger barbs at all on it, and we did get medium size in so we are not out of them anymore. Also cherry barbs are great size for the first time in recent memory, and the black ruby barbs that came in are on the verge of coloring up (pic below). The males probably will show red and black if you get them into a planted tank where they're less stressed than they are in our bare tanks here.
White Top Afras only been here a couple weeks and the males are starting to color up like crazy (see pic below). Other Mbuna that look good include Acei and Red OB Zebra. Also still have plenty of the fancier types that you might not see very often anymore in the near future like the Elongatus Chewere.
Have a lot of great size bread and butter. Penguin tetras are still coming in way oversized. These are imported fish and the size is sure to get smaller very soon, so stock up while you can. Black Neon tetras also are as good as they've in the past 6 months, and the cardinals are holding up very well so far this week.
For livebearers, the XL balloon mollies that we got late last week are so large you could basically play golf with them. These don't come in often, so I know the price is a lot higher than the standard size, but trust us it's well worth the extra cost. These are show fish. For platies the bumblebees look good (size isn't large, but color is great) and on swords we actually have a decent selection this week and the Koi Kohaku swords actually have more than 1 visible male in the tank for a change!
I know a lot of ya'll have been asking for Gold Honey gouramis for a while and those did finally come back in. They're looking great, good size for a dwarf gourami.
Please give a call if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Nautilus |
