Hey Folks,
Lots of of fun new cichlids in here today, plus new guppies over the weekend and a bunch of other Singapore and Bangkok fish in here today. My cool fish in the subject line are either in transit or still in bags so you'll have to wait till Friday for pics.
Got in a handful of curare tiger severums. They're huge and have lots of red, but they're very far from perfect. Fins are a bit frayed. Still super impressive, and the fins will clean up.
Not quite as impressive or as rare, but I have a couple jumbo chocolate cichlids. Also got the 5" ones from the Friday email on to my new fish list. Herichthys deppi are in stock for the first time in years, a rare Texas cichlid relative that shows some red in the face. Also have some 3" Rio San Juan nicagraguense which is the pretty blue and orange fish that see on Google images. Most of the nics in Florida are crappy brassy/coppery colored fish. These Rio San Juan fish will be gorgeous. Other new cichlids in stock today include medium istlanum, medium fenestratus, myersi, and spectabilis. Getting in some Florida-bred guppies and some Venezuela black cories tomorrow.
Rosy tetras came in late last week and they're the nicest ones I've seen. These fish are always far-east farm fish and usually tiny. This batch isn't huge but they're three times normal size. A lot like the candy canes but with a black dorsal, both of these are bleeding heart relatives and similar in size, temperament, etc.
Best guppies from my weekend restock include white dumbos (they're yellow and black), platinums (these are white), pigeonbloods, flametails, and tricolor dumbos.
Import blue paradise are in stock but they're very small. A few other new imports include blue kerri tetras, gold white clouds, small redtail cats, lemon oscars, and electric blue rams. Still waiting on gold and silver sailfin mollies, sunshine peacocks, and balloon rams. If you order for later in the week I'll have daisy rice fish. Some fish that stood out in today's walk-through include four-line pims, baby panda garras, albino pacus, Asian rummynose, albino paleatus, platinum green tiger barbs, red beckfordi pencils, sun cats, penguin tetras, metae cories, orange pikes, kamaka rainbows, black ranchus, black rams, and 3.5" flagtail Prochs.
Please give a call if you have any questions.
Thanks,

Got in quite a few new Indo items. Viper boas are available again. If you ever wanted a death adder this is a good alternative that won't kill you. They get their name because they're very viper-like, with a pattern a bit like the death adders of New Guinea. They are usually pretty nippy, and I'd like to say they can make a nice display snake but they tend to bury themselves a lot. Still, they are pretty and tend to sell quick.
Baby blood pythons are back in season. They have a reputation for biting a lot. Because they bite a lot. However, if you handle them regularly they calm down quickly, and there are lots of big baby-tame blood pythons out there. Few snakes more impressive than a big tame blood python.
A few other new items available this week include eastern black kings (rarely available), Halmahara blue-tongue skinks, and crested dragons.

Herp pics are stock, the new ones are hand-picked high-red, probably nicer than this. |
