Well finally gave up on my LFS's getting the fish I want in so I ordered them from apistodave Dave Soares said he'd ship them as soon as the check arrived I ordered 1 pr Nanacara anamola and 2 pr Apistogramma Borelli man so excited can hardly wait for them to get here will post pics when they get here G2G sincerely Curtis
 
I really want to order fish on the net, but theres the problems of
Cost
Ordering a lot of fish at one time, and not being able to put them in the community at once
And as a result of the above, cycling all the 5gs I'm going to need for each type.

Yea your right about cost although I figured it ot at least for my area when the fish are 14 15 dollars and up apiece at LFSs some times it cost effective especially if online they come in prs and are priced that way most LFSs sell singles not prs sure you can get pr but at pre fish cost best way to keep cost down online is to group order that way shipping is divided by group just got to work out logistics in the group me it worked out that i would only save about 10dollars via LFS so i went for it and yess I might be looking for another tank was looking to get anotherone anyway gotta be 50gal at least though Sincerely Curtis
 
Are you talking about me? Its not my fault, lately I really can't type at all :grr: I need to work out the cost in relation to LFS, TBH there won't be much difference apart from all the better types you can get online. EG, I really want BW tetras, but nowhere near me sells them. And I want killifish too :drool: . The main cost problem really though is that your spending it all at once, rather than over several weeks/months.
 
Grammar police. Hmph.

Congrats on your order-sounds like you're really excited! I'll be ordering some snails soon-I can't wait! I want to order fish but my ph is so high I think I should just stick with local stuff.

I have no idea what fish your talking about
who me? I was talking about the OP's fish he ordered.
 
No, I was talking about Mematrix77. The fish that have been ordered. I don't do latin names, even though I do latin...
 
eh, most latin names aren't really in latin anyways... they're just latinized versions of this, that or the other researcher. well, the genus is, but since most of those were originated in the dark ages of fishkeeping, they don't tell us that much anyways.
