    News & New Items
    Hey Everyone,

    Lots of new items added to the list this week that we haven't had either ever before or recently.  New Goldfish from our new supplier are very good quality and it's a breath of fresh air to get some new goldfish in here, it's been so difficult lately.   The new Ryukins are in both Calico or Red and White varieties and both look great.  The new Calico Ranchus are also fantastic with good conformation.  Lastly, we did also find the Pearlscales we put on the list last week, so those are now available as well.  

    Lots of new stuff from Asia other than the Goldfish though.  Ornate Bichirs are back for the first time in 6 months.  A new smaller size of Discus mix is back (2 inches). Fire eels were out of stock the last couple weeks but came back in around 4-5 inches.  Neon Rosy Barbs are a variety we can't get from Florida farmers and are very nice looking.  Scarlet Badis are back, and if you like red fish, Chili Oscars as well look fantastic this batch.  

    New from Colombia, we've got a fresh batch of small Geo Jurupari.  last batch a month of two ago sold out very quickly.  Got plenty more from Colombia, but it's all restocks of the most popular fish in the hobby like Rubber and Clown plecos, otos, and pictus cats.

    Florida fish continue to excel in the heat here and get plenty big before coming over for sale.  Some of the standouts include Rosy and Cherry barbs, Colombian, Black Phantom, and Bloodfin tetras, and pretty much any Rainbowfish.  No new African Cichlids for this week, but the restock on Red Zebras might be the best looking red zebras I've seen in my entire life.  These are RED.  I've always wondered why they weren't called orange Zebras, but I guess now I know some bloodlines are actually red. 

    Reach out to your rep if you have any questions.

    New Asia Imports
    Ryukins now available at a great size, finally!  After literally almost a decade of only having 2.5 inch on our list, we've got some bigger ones for you this week.  These Red and Whites at the 10CM size are fantastic!  Crisp lines where the orange meets the white, big tails, and looking very healthy.
    8-9CM Ryukins also available in the Calico form!
    Calico Ranchu Lionheads also still available!  These came in last week but we didn't sell out.  about 8CM so very solid size for a Ranchu.
    We found the assorted Pearlscales!   Sorry if you ordered these last week and got scratched.  They've been located now and are ready to go out on orders. 
    Possibly the nicest, reddest Chili Oscars I've seen in a while.  Not all are albino types either, like this one with the dark fin outlines.
    Balloon Red Eyes are back in stock.  Average size.
    Scarlet Badis have been added to the list in addition to the Black Tiger Badis we already had.  The Scarlet are the more popular of the 2 types, but that's probably only because the name sounds better. 
    Medium sized Parrot Cichlids are MUCH nicer than the small size.  Please order the mediums, you're going to be much happier in the long run. 
      Gardneri Killis have nice colored males in the new batch.  
    Mixed 2 inch discus are on the small side of 2 inches (put them on a ruler, they're 2 from tip of nose to tip of tail, but just barely 2 on the dot)
    Mixed 2.5" Discus on the other hand look much better.  I think they're worth the extra couple dollars, for sure.  
    New Roseline sharks are great size.  We say "small" on our list, but they're probably 2.5 inches.  Already have color straight out of the arrival bag after 36 hours in transit. 
    A smaller size of fire eel restocked this week.  I believe they're 4-5 inch.
    Ornate Bichirs are back!  The best looking of all Bichir species, and have been in short supply lately.  We only got about 40, and I'm sure they'll go in a week.  
    Community Standouts
    Albino Paradise Gouramis are fantastic this week.  Basically full grown adults in full color.  
    Cherry Barbs are in the tanks today on Friday, ready for Monday.  they're great size and color.  Don't hold it against me though if they don't get restocked Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday.  I'm not sure if the breeder we buy them from has more to send us after we sell out Monday.  
    Gold Neon Rosy Barbs are back in stock and excellent size.  I think the standard Rosy Barbs are still quite excellent as well, so you can't go wrong with either one. 
    Longfin Zebra as well as regualr zebra danios are both back in stock and good adult sized fish.  Don't let the common stuff pass you buy!  They're popular and common for a good reason.  
    Flag Fish are gigantic, on average.  Great time to get these popular algae-eaters (and they're great for controlling algae in ponds, too!)
    Black Skirt Tetras are gigantic.   Longfin Black Skirts are on special so the better price, but the non-long fin types are much much larger. 
    Bloodfin tetras are full grown adults, they don't get bigger than this.  it's also been a while since we've had them in stock so I'm sure these will go quick. 
    Black Phantoms are well above average and one of the best looking tetras for the 8th or 9th week in a row.  If you're not stocking these, frankly, you're making a mistake and leaving money on the table. 
    Serpae Tetras are running oversized, have great color.
    Not the best pic to show the color, but the Colombian Tetras are getting huge again
    Redtail Crystal Platy are the best looking platy, in my opinion.  The color combo on these looks super cool.
    Blue Butterfly Moon Platy are back and were very popular the last couple times we brought these in.  They're a little pricier than most of the other platy strains, but they seem to be worth it.  The yellow color in the dorsal fin is very unique.
    Candy Cane MM are also extremely nice platies this week.  
    Velvet Tux Sword are the best swordtail by far, if you're ordering one line of swords, make it these (unless you just want the assorted from the EDLP Specials, those are good too if you just need the cheapest price)
    Rainbows
    Neon Dwarf Rainbows are coming in great size.  Living up to the "neon" part of the name as well. 
    Yellow Medium Rainbows are probably the best looking rainbow overall, I'd say.   Bosemani are out of stock this week, so these make a great replacement for them if you normally just stock bosemani. 
    Emerald Rainbows are not the most colorful strain, but they're by far the biggest!  These are averaging 3 inches plus.
    Central/South American Cichlids
    Brasiliensis are new at the 4 inch size.  This is the best size to get them at, honestly.  They're big enough to show plenty of great blue color, but not so big that they've had a big price jump.  
    Medium sized EB Acara came in almost as big as the bigger ones from last week, so they're awesome value.
    2 Inch Red Devils are already showing nice piebald type patterning on a lot of them.
    5 Inch Red Devils are restocked.  Some are marbled types, and some are solid orange like this one.   It's pretty close to 50/50 this batch.  
    Wild Geophagus Jurupari are in from Colombia this week, and always go quick.  These are one of the more peaceful cichlids and do well in small groups.
    Old World Cichlids
    Maybe the best looking Red Zebra mbunas I've seen in my entire life.  Not crappy orange ones like they normally are, great genetics on these.  
     
    Chewere Elongatus are fantastic looking,  These are 100% males, and all look like picture-perfect google images examples of the species. 
    Red Nyereri mediums are restocked and just as beautiful as ever.  Mixed sex but probably 70% males.   The fired up dominant fish are some of the prettiest freshwater fish in the world. 
    Dragon Blood Peacocks are colored up FL bred fish that won't fade.  
    Frontosas are much larger than average this week.  Might be pushing 1.5 inches right now. 
    Plecos & Pals
    Huge difference in size in the Colombian Zebra Plecos, but even the small ones are worth the price.  These are the cheapest of all the fancy plecos, and if they were less common they'd probably be $80 fish, they look good enough.  
    Royal Plecos are perfect right now, even at the small size (2.5 inches avg)
    Lemon Blue Eye plecos got restocked this week.  Both these mediums pictured here that are really good size, and the 1.5 inch babies for those that want a more budget friendly option and have some patience to grow them up. 
    Gold Green Cory Cats are a new cory this week from Colombia.  Decent size, and these do look significantly different from a "normal green" cory. 
    Weekly Specials
    LG Mix Mbunas
     
    Medium Salvini
    Rosy Tetras
    Mix Balloon Rams
    BB Goby
    "Pagoda" Snail are a lot different from the nice big Pagoda we had a few weeks back.  They're way, way cheaper though on special and still kind of neat looking. 
    Don't forget, we sell corals too!
    We offer corals through our partner and ex-employee Chris at ACI Aquaculture.  He is growing some incredible cultured frags at his facility down the road from us, and importing from the best sources in the world.  Whether you're looking for cheap frags that will sell well (single headed aussie duncans, assorted zoanthids, montis) or you're looking for an S-grade Scolymia worthy of any display tank of the best stores in the world, you can get that here.  There's honestly so much on the list you can easily triple your money on with minimal effort, that every store that sells saltwater should be getting some corals from us every week.
