Got two home last night and they seem to have settled in well.
Looking at the quality of these fish it must be the best $50 I have spent.

by the way guys, I can only sell 4 max per person... I am sorry, its a personal rule of mine. Its nothing against any one.

@ ants : glad they are enjoying their new home =]
@ ozarowana: need to sell them cheap lol, otherwise no one will want them! you have seen my tank, its Tiny compared to the size of these fish... and you know how fat they can grow! :twisted:

lol, thanks Illusn!
They have been through a lot of tough times. These guys were my first batch. I didnt have much experience in this field back then (well, still dont know a lot now too). The had flukes/tail rots/depression and we moved them around a lot as well. Glad they all survived and have a huge obsession with food. Tough fish they are!

Heya ya dean-alicia
Glad to hear they could handle the cold, i was so scared that they might freeze throughtout the trip. Um i think i mistyped my first post. I had 30 of them before. Now i have around 20 or 19, cant remember.. at least now there is some room for the fish to swim around.

Heya Nick,

They are blue, they are still babies so they dont display color yet, but they should display their color once they want to breed. The parents are electric blue - or according to the pic posted. There are about 17 left, though some are stunted, so i dont think I should sell them, which leaves around 14 left. Most of the big ones are gone by now. The babies here are around 7- 9 cm.

Cheers

Heya
i checked last night, totally forgot to reply. I think I have 2 without stripes. Um, ok i don't know, some times they display stripes, most of the other time they dont. One doesnt have stripe, while the other has faint stripes. :? - It really depends on your taste :s. I will try to take some photo and post it up, though it might take a while (i have some paper due on friday... hehe). Will keep you update. Sorry for the delay

Hey Thao

Do you have any small ones for sale around the 50 cent size ?

Hey Thao

Ey rbow,

um there are 2 from the newest batch that are a bit bigger than 50cent. If you want them, i would sell them for around 15 to 20 bucks (negotiable). I guess it would be better to get the big ones for 25 bucks (better value and 5 times bigger). These small ones haven't gone through the fluke/death period yet (they are only a month old). So I don't know :s

Im not too sure how to send them interstate... Melbourne's weather is kinda werid at the momment, cold and hot. I don't think i have enough gut to send them interstate yet. SORRY!! But you can always organise a holiday trip and swing by to get them :D

here are the pics. Please don't mind the water.. lol...i hate algae.. they are blue turq, i dont know how old they are ...but they are around 10-13cm(but if you read this entire post, you will know how old they are ^^). Selling them for 30 bucks each. Pick up at wheelers hill, melbourne only.

Hi every one, Sorry about this, my sisters (the one who actually have been raising the fish, im just the advertiser) wants an increase in price. I think they want 50 for each. I obviously dont know the pricing system.... and all their hard work..

For those who have contacted me before (Hi_fish & dean_alicia, i will keep the price as 30 each. Sorry for the conflicts.
