Searching For African Butterfly Fish.

[baker360360]

Been ring all my lfs for weeks trying to get 1. But no luck. They keep saying that the african shipments haven't brought any over. Any other ways

I've looked on local ads with no luck and the online retailers have ridiculous p&p

Guess I'll wait for 1 at my lfs

No, just looked at their web site and they only have the sommerset store.

Just Found a site online they have 2 in stock but i must spend atleast £20 and then £10.99 p&p so a bit too pricey

oooh that is getting on a bit for two fish,
however if they are the ones you want

I was in my local MA just now, and they had some - perhaps they could order some in for you, as their suppliers obviously do have them at the moment.
 
Your nearest ones are Dartford or Enfield - they may even be able to get some in from Havant for you. And if you are happy going that far, try Wildwoods.

Just done a quick search. Wildwoods are showing them in stock, as are WHolesale Tropical in Beffnal Green, which'd be a bit closer again for you.

Don't drive so it will be a problem getting to those shops. Gonna look at the bethnal green place now .

 

[baker360360]

Think I found a couple, got someone going to get them today fingers crossed

 

[baker360360]

Got them. They are on the way.
£2.95 each cheap as chips

 

[nortonmad213]

Was about to buy 2 online for £16 plus £10.99 p&p but they stopped posting fish as the weathers colder. So a touch of fate today.
