9-10CM Red and Black Orandas are excellent. The mixed Orandas very, very rarely have red and black ones in it, because the breeders pull these more desirable/premium color combination out before they send us the mix. We're finally able to offer them as their own separate SKU!

4 Inch Clown Loaches are back! They sold out extremely fast last time, and I expect the same again this week. We got twice as many as that first time we got them a few weeks ago, but that means we got 30 instead of 15, so still not many.

Hey Folks,

Got a few nice and desirable new things for you this week, both pictured up above. The clown loaches are going to be the hottest item on the list this week again most likely. We got a handful of these a couple weeks ago, and we sold out almost immediately. Now we have a small restock and I'm sure they'll be flying out of here again. The extra size makes a huge difference on Clown Loaches and they're well worth paying a little extra for. The larger ones are much more resistant to illness, eat better, and acclimate better.

The other new thing are the Red and Black Orandas. I get asked 4 or 5 times a week about pulling red and blacks out of the mix for people, but the reality is the vender basically doesn't put them in our mix, and I can't really blame them since it's the color combo everyone wants the most. Quality looks very good on these, and size is consistently about 9CM. The amount of black varies quite a lot, obviously, but I think if you like the one in the picture you'll be happy with them.

Other than that, not a ton new to report that I didn't say on Friday. Lots of really cool stuff in that Friday email, the Colombia shipment in particular was FANTASTIC last week, so make sure to go back and read the Friday email and check out all the pictures!

Green terrors, medium veil angels, and a few more staples got restocked like usual over the weekend. Guppies came in from Sri Lanka over the weekend to fully restock the guppy sections too.

Reach out to your rep if you have any questions.

L177 Iriri Gold Nuggets are the best looking of the Gold Nuggets. Came in 2 weeks ago so they're pretty stable at this point.

Colombian Zebra plecos came in a little larger than average with the same great patterns they always have. For the price, it's hard to beat these.

Mixed medium haps have plenty of colored and nice looking fish in it. They're only like....6 bucks? Fantastic deal that not many of ya'll take advantage of.

Mixed Medium Male FL Bred Peacocks have some super cool, much more rare types in there at the moment. I love this pink and orange dragonblood looking guy. Sizes are pretty mixy, the more common stuff is a little larger on average than the less common stuff (makes sense).

Brichardis are back in stock at the normal size. These are far-east fish, and have been extremely hardy for years. Great oddball looking African Cichlid, and these are a community species that actually LIKES to live in a shoal together.

2 inch Cubans might not look as good as the larger ones right now, but they will turn into one of the coolest looking CA Cichlids in the hobby. Males get almost jet black faces and markings on a white background.

Regular Green Terrors got restocked.

Small Polar Blue Parrots are living up to the "small" part of the name this week. Color is excellent, but size is not. Maybe wait a week on these.

Cherry Barbs are still coming in great size and FL bred. Males and females mixed, we can't offer male-only, but the mix is NOT female heavy, it's close to 50/50.

Red Panda barbs are starting to color up! When these are mature they're one of the best looking barbs you can find.

Redtail Tinfoil Barbs are still coming in most weeks. Supply has been very hit or miss on these lately, what was once ALWAYS in stock year round.

Regular Serpaes are back in stock. These are bred here locally, so they're way bigger and nicer than you're used to getting most of the time from. Very nice right now.

Veil Angel Mediums are absolutely huge again.
