Here's some Trilineatus Corydoras pics to tempt Fishfanatic into getting some:

Oooo i love them

 

[FishFanatic04]

Ohh so pretty!!!


The small flat rate box is $4.95 2-3 day shipping is fine with plants. Wrap them in a moist paper towel in newspaper or a ziploc.

Less than $5 each at Petco with a 30 day warranty! I had five and I added two but one died 2-3 days after I added it. They new ones were really small and I guess the one was weak to begin with. I'm getting a replacement tomorrow.

Can I just pay the regular UPS guy that stops in? I assume he has these flat rate boxes on the truck right?

I'll let the Wisteria grow until they start hanging over and then I'll trim them. That will make it worthwhile because they'll be more large pieces with roots already started. I'd rather send them with a little water at least & maybe double bag ziplocks.

USPS Flat rate, but you can set it up to be picked up by the mail man. My petco is full of QT signs now.

I was offering my plants man of fish, not trying to sell. I will let you pay shipping though, but only if I have enough to make it worth it for you. It wouldn't hurt my feelings if you QT them. If I get my plants at my local petco, I put them in my QT tank with aquarium salt because they keep fish with the plants even though they aren't supposed to.

If I order from freshwateraquariumplants.com then I don't bother with QT. They are the best quality plants for sale that I have seen. They grow submerged only and rarely use a wholesaler. The only problem is they are often backed up, like now. My order hasn't shipped and I paid last thursday. Their selection doesn't always cover what I need either.

I keep giving plant speeches

They are so awesome! The only problem is at $5 a fish, I am looking at about $65 I only paid $20 for 10 albinos. Maybe if Bob's tropical's can get them for me.

 

[Man of fish]

I luzz you guyz!!!!!!!! Bob can prolly order them in for you he can order most stuff in.

 

[Ruskull]

Six Threelined Corys would only cost $27 before tax at $4.50 each..........they would be friends with the Albinos I'm sure. 10 Albinos & 6 Threelined would be epic & keep the bottom level of the tank clean as a whistle.

You know you want to.........

Wait until Petco gets their QT worked out, their 30 day warranty is worth it IMO. Find out what day they get their fish shipment on & get them after a day or two. Usually the weaker fish don't last 2 days & any longer & the fish are exposed to "the big store tank water conditions," overcrowding, etc.

Who's Bob?

 

[Man of fish]

Maybe if Bob's tropical's can

Bobstropicalplants.com

 

[Ruskull]

OK

Maybe he has them cheaper or bigger specimens?

 

[Man of fish]

He can usually get stuff pretty cheap.

I would need 12-15 of them for my 75g. the albinos are going in the 46 Bobs tropical got my albinos for $2 a piece. I'll write and ask when I need them, unless petco's look good. I'll wait until my Qt is over on these new fish.

 

[Dieses Madchen]

Hey lovelies!!! My Jack Dempseys just laid about 400 eggs!!!

I'm sure you'll have a LOVELY time finding homes for all of them DM.................

Man, I'd be so jealous of you having 15 of my favorite Corys...........How come you never post pics of your 75 gallon anyway?
