    Jumbo Green Terror
    Hey Folks,

    Longest new fish list I've seen in a long time. I had some Florida stuff come in over the weekend, got a bunch of wild-collected Florida fish due in tomorrow, and of course I have my usual Sri Lanka and Bangkok fish.

    I have three or four pieces of the jumbo green terrors. They are all big and super impressive, with great color. All one-per-tank here so they'll stay clean. Also have new 2" steindachneri red-hump eartheaters and 3" heckeli threadfin eartheaters. Other new Florida fish include red-eye tetras (they're small), albino paradise, red rainbows, albino cherry barbs (very small), Siamese algae eaters, and great size medium orange shoulder severums.

    Restocked on a ton of guppies. Best ones are blue Moscows, midnight, blue cobras, yellow tux, tricolor dumbos, red pandas, and ocean blues. A few other new imports include redtail botias, tiger botias, blue kerris, and deluxe mix shrimp.

    Got a bunch of Florida-collected fish coming in tomorrow (thanks Steven), including wild Florida fish and introduced exotics. Mayan cichlids are among the most common fish in the state now, and I've got these coming in in three sizes. Wild-collected jewels are just as mean and just as pretty as if they were pond raised. Belonesox are big and toothy. Very difficult to convert to anything other than live feeders so make sure you have food fo them. For native fish, getting in sailfin mollies, including some melanistic ones, and limited numbers of dollar sunfish. It's a Lepomis but very small. Not regulated as a gamefish in Florida but it might be in your state so check before you order them. Some stuff that stood out in today's walk-through include penguin tetras, rummynose, banjo cats, blue dolphin moori, acei, albino veil cherry barbs, gold honey gouramis, pineapple swords, 3" red devils, and medium turquoise rainbows.


    Please give a call if you have any questions.

    Thanks,

    3" Heckeli
    I don't see them but there's a chance I have 3" altifrons here too.
    Albino Paradise
    Red Panda Guppies
    Redtail Botia
    Belonosox AKA Pike Livebearer
    3-5" Mayan Cichlids (Also have a handful of 5-8 inch size)
    Regular size mayans range from these pictured here up to almost 3 inches.  Color is good even from a young age, and they school together without aggression.
    Dollar Sunfish.  Brightly colored sunfish that maxes out around 4 inches. Only native to a few southeast states. 
    Wild-collected footlong plecos.  Full fat bellies on these. 
    Golden Topminnow, a Fundulus species and Florida native. Every bit as colorful as the more expensive imported killifish types.
    Wild caught Florida jewel cichlids (medium size shown, also have regular size)
    Wild Sailfin Mollies.  Great size,and have absolutely stunning males.  The wild ones like to show off to the females more than the lazy aquarium strains. 
     
    Reptile & Amphibian Highlights
    Not much new in the way of herps but there will be tomorrow.

    Giant pyxie frogs are the one new item on the list. Kinda like pac man frogs but even mouthier. They get big and they eat everything.

    Lots of Egyptian stuff coming in right now like painted agamas, schneider's skinks, sandfish, and a few other odds and ends.

    Russian tortoises are still available but they're going fast, especially the females.
