We've hit a bump friends. My mom wont let me order from Synirr, because she dose not believe me that shipping is just 4 dollars for two females

Bring her over to your computer and show her the adoption thread.

I have, she says they're probably defected and will not make it here. She just dosn't believe me. Can anybody shead some light on this?

I really don't want to have to buy 5 females for 20 dollars from the store+I'd have to pay for special order

 

[jollysue]

Has she given you any option?

Ask, if it won't offend her, what would have to happen for her to say yes?

 

[The ultimate_fish MaC dAddY]

Ive got an idea. If all of you guys that have ordered bettas from Synirr give me pics of the ones that she's sold you, I can show her how good of a condition they're in. Can you guys do this for me?

 

[riogal_11]

Just pull up the Synirr Baby pics thread and let her see pics and posts from all of the happy new parents!! if that doesn't convince her nothing will.....Surely she wouldn't have let you get all of this stuff set-up only to not let you get fish Unless she is wanting to pay the 20 dollars for lfs quality, instead of quality stuck for 4 dollars from Synirr?

Well I failed, Now there saying that there is no way that a fish can last in a box for a day, despite what they read. They said that for all of that water to ship here it would cost at least 50 bucks. So I guess I will be spending 30 some dollars on five bettas that will probably die within a week.

You know what, I'm thinking of taking the tank down, and just putting my female in a 1 gallon tank. I wanted this sooooooo bad too, but unless I could sell my XBOX I cant afford to special order 5 bettas and pay for them, (have to special order them because none of my LPS sells female bettas without having to special order them.) Well maybe when I move out and get a good paying job I will special order bettas from you Synirr all the time.

You could tell her that most of the fish you see at the LFS have sat in boxes while being shipped for atleast a couple days, and they're fine. So why not synirrs babies?

I'll give it a go. I really don't want to start another argueement over it.

I just asked her, and she told me that water is heavy, and it's going to cost a lot more than four dollars to ship them. I love her but she can be so hard headed.

Now, if she wanted to foot the bill, you can opt to get your bettas from Synirr and ship them express. That costs more, but they arrived in less than two days! She may be more comfortable with that.

how big are the bags that she ships them in?

 

[The ultimate_fish MaC dAddY]

GOOD NEWS, i guess. I showed her a picture of a male, and she said that she'll ponder it. Hey we got a ponder

 

[riogal_11]

The bags are really small, not like the ones you take fish home in at an lfs..... Goodluck on her pondering! hehe *fingers crossed for you*

 

[The ultimate_fish MaC dAddY]

Thanks, she said she will sleep on it, so I guess I'll find out tomorrow.

P.S. Could you put 2 males together if they were brothers and had never been separated?
