Cichlids Wanted

[Big_eyes]

Ideally looking for two of each of the above.

Would need to be posted as I'm without a car at the minute.

Have you checked out Wildwoods (Tropical Fish Finder UK), as they have both species available at the moment (or they did when I last looked a week ago), usually good quality fish, well packed and delivered on time.

Couldn't find them on there earlier, maybe I'm just being a retard. Emailed them though to ask if they have them available.

They definately have blue acara's, but I they dont seem to have any tapajos, look under Cichlid, South American Acaras and Cichlid, South American Geophagines.

He emailed me back an they have both types in stock

The tapajo's are £20 each

But they're worth it

I paid £7 for my Tapajos (Harling based Swallow Aquatics)...£20 is ridiculous... I could have got 3 or 4 for that...depending on the mood of the staff

Where do you live?

Granted though they are still worth the money but they're adding a lot on top, does that include postage/packaging?

Hiya, I forgot to look into shipping.

Aaaaaaand I just did ..........£18.95 for shipping on top of that!

Ok they aren't worth that much.

I'm in cumbria btw.

I was just wondering whether there was a Swallow Aquatics near you but they're all down south...

For the money they are charging I would just wait until you can get to a LFS at some point in the future, surely there are some decent ones up your neck of the woods?

I don't really know to be honest. I only have one half decent one in town who can order fish in for me, however expects me to purchase at least 5 of whatever fish I am looking for.

As for others further out, I am struggling as I have no car to travel about at the moment. Will have to google about and ask questions I think. Will pm dave_oddballs too, he'll probably know somewhere half decent.

Skip on the blue acara and get 5 red tapajos

I love both fish but I am let to believe the having a fair few geo's is the best way to go with them...I can't say much though, I only have 1 right now...

To be honest you're tapping into a little thought that is sitting in the back of my mind there. I think I would rather have a bigger group of tapajo's. It's just finding them somewhere that delivers at a decent price really

Can't you get 5 from your local LFS? you wrote:

Just a thought, sounds like a plan that might work to me

 

[Big_eyes]

Nobody local can get these tapajo's for me. I've decided to skip on the blue acara's for now.

In fact both lfs' pulled a funny face and hadn't got a clue what they were. Still waiting for one to finish looking into them, not hopeful though.

So far then I only know where I can buy them at a small fortune

Anyone any ideas?
