..wonders exactly which species that Blenny is.
..wonders if that Microcrab is the same as the one previously sold.
..wants to know the price of the Guppy, and freely admits that he finds blue the least attractive of all the morphs.
..needs to stop talking like a Facebook status update. |

They are either Omobranchus zebra or Omobranchus ferox, given that they are coming from India.

Yes.

Really? I found the yellow the least attractive, and thought the blues were the better looking ones. Don't have a price yet.

But it makes my answering much easier.

I haven't seen any in person yet, though the blues look so, so subtle compared to the bolder red and yellow morphs.. ironically, the subtle colors and patterns of livebearers is the reason I like them.
Quite intrigued by this shipment. |

I actually had them in about a month or so ago. They sold out quickly...before I could get good pics of them.

LOL! Nothing else. Really. 
Who knew these fish would be desirable? I ordered them just to help fill the box.

Yes, but they came in cold. They look good, but I want to give them some extra quarantine time.

Are the Sakura Shrimp fully colored from being in transit? How do they look compared to the Red Cherries you got?
Also, since I'm typing, are you out of your Electric Blue Rams? |

They still look pale, but then again they are in a bare holding tank. They are darker than the cherry reds, though.
| Quote: | | Also, since I'm typing, are you out of your Electric Blue Rams? |
Yes. I can probably get more after the new year.

| Indian was cancelled? But you must have figured out why you were having mortality issues with the anableps to have ordered them at all. What was the problem? |

Actually, I have not figured out the problem with them. But what I planned to do with them was to put them in half-strength seawater, which is what they are collected in. I had hopes that this would solve any problems.
No India shipments until after the new year.

Hi Frank,
Do you bring in other dwarf cichlids or do you just bring in rams?
Regards,
Tee |

I don't usually bring in dwarf cichlids. I got the rams for another customer, and had some extras. I can get other dwarfs, but I don't usually bring them in because I have to order so many of them.

Frank,
I would like to buy at least 10 Micro Crabs.
Do you have them for sale when you are able to ship again?
I am also interested in buying other freshwater crabs that can stay underwater all times like Thai Micro crab.
Thanks |

A good question. The night temps have to be in the high 40's before I'll think of shipping. and with another storm coming my way, who knows when that will be.

Yeah, we get our "cold" front tomorrow. Highs in the mid-60s. Burrr.
Here's hoping for warmer temps soon.

Yes, they are a true freshwater crab. They do not need a get out of the water and, as far as I know, they breed and the larvae develop in freshwater
| Quote: | | Been waiting a long time for them to come back in stock but can't find any info on them |
They have not been on the lists recently. I think I may have some info on them.
BTW, the correct spelling of the scientific name of the rusty crab is Sartoriana spinigera. I need to make that correction on my site.
