Hi kev,

Could you please send me a price list of your fishes above? I am very interested in the eruptions and face spotted ones but intend to get some of the 2 " discus as well. I hope to get them in the future but would first like to know what their pricing is like. Thanks

kevkoi,,,r u the importer or u get it from a wholesaler who imports them?

Proteus
Tue Jul 19, 2005, 12:27 PM
Kevkoi organises the shipments for Slippery Little Suckers.

I should also add, that on most occassions, these fish are inspected personally by Kev prior to shipment, not many importers in Australia do that

kevkoi
Tue Jul 19, 2005, 03:13 PM
I pick the fish, and I send it off to SLS.... So I've seen all these fish and selected thru them prior to shipping.

Well, I have a little bit of bad news....

Unfortunatly due to circumstances that are beyond our control, (missing paperwork) the discus release date has had to be delayed. :(

Never fear though; just need to be patient for alittle longer and the fish will be available. :D

We are anticipating that the fish will be released hopefully early this week We will keep you all posted and upto date with the goings on. :wink:

Thanks everybody for your patience...

Michella :)

Just looking at the number of times this site has been viewed - 1517 - that would have to make it the most popular site on the Forum, wouldn't it?

From what I understand SLS, your Fish are worth waiting for.

Mon Aug 08, 2005, 06:46 AM
Are the 2" Blue Snakeskins locally bred or from overseas? Can we have pics if possible :)?

Thnx,

Mon Aug 08, 2005, 08:22 AM
just a quick question. When you mention the size, is it measured from the tip of the mouth to the start of the tail or from the tip of the mouth to the end of the tail?

mcloughlin2
Mon Aug 08, 2005, 08:25 AM
Tip of the mouth to the end of the tail :D ...

kevkoi
Mon Aug 08, 2005, 09:28 AM
Blue snakeskins are imported..... Drop by to view the fish. These are actually blue diamond x snakeskin.

Size are provided by the breeder, I would say Total Length (*nose to tail) and u'll be happy. :wink:

Paperwork has been finally sorted... fish should be out by Thursday.

YAY!!!

Endless, give them a ring tomorrow. I'm sure they will be able to answer all your questions.

A lot of the Melbourne members have had fish shipped from interstate, with no problems.

kevkoi
Wed Aug 10, 2005, 04:09 PM

Also ordered some this morning. Discus and bn's.

What did you get?

endless
Thu Aug 11, 2005, 05:49 AM
10 discus. pigeons, snakeskins, turqs, cobalt, red melon. I wanted the german red turqs but they have all been sold out already :(

oscar
Thu Aug 11, 2005, 06:25 AM
10! Sheesh, if i bought 10 in one hit my wife would shoot me.

I managed to get one of the German Turqs, penang errupt, yellow melon and checkerboard pigeon.

Looking forward to receiving them.

Also got a handfull of peppermint bristlenose. Might start trying to breed them.

endless
Thu Aug 11, 2005, 07:24 AM
how much did u buy the peppermint for and at wot size?

kevkoi
Thu Aug 11, 2005, 09:16 AM
U're lucky u got the German turq... I heard a whole lot of them are going to another shop and there's a waiting list.

I'm suppose to arrange for more when I go up to Penang next week.... I hope there are some.

oscar
Thu Aug 11, 2005, 09:17 PM
Yeah the G-RT have really nice colour and pattern. I thought there was only a handful to go around, as opposed to a "whole lot".

Endless - Peppermint were $55/ea. I think they're somewhere around the 4cm? Doesn't realy matter...they'll grow. Doesn't take them long. I find my bristlenose go absolutely crazy for the Wardley brine shrimp pellets, which are obviously for the Cory's.
