Re: Direct Import from Africa - African Cichlids Aquaculture

Cf if you are intrested in the Tropheus Ilangi Yellow we will go int the box deal with you how many are you intrested in? That would give us about 28 fish a pc. or would you like to find a third person to go in with us?

Re: Direct Import from Africa - African Cichlids Aquaculture

Well, this is Geoff's show, but I'll be happy to go in with you on those.

NOTE: I'd like to keep the cost under or around 200.00.

Re: Direct Import from Africa - African Cichlids Aquaculture

I am in the process of asking people that it is ok if I can post their screenname by what fish they are wanting, this way you guys can communicate together and make a more economical decision.

I cannot post pricing on the fishes, I hope that people can understand that.  I can however send you a PM on the price of the fish you are interested in buying.

Take care,

Geoff

Re: Direct Import from Africa - African Cichlids Aquaculture

The Ilangi, Nkonde Yellow, Chilmabo Yellow, and Lufubu are the most expensive Tropheus on the list.

Well my wife has expensive taste. Like that's new.

Re: Direct Import from Africa - African Cichlids Aquaculture

If I pull off a bigger tank I wouldn't mind getting a few more Ilangi's.


With the list the way it is now it will probably be Chaitika's.

Re: Direct Import from Africa - African Cichlids Aquaculture

I would like to make my first choice the NKonde Yellow, due to the higher cost for the Ilangi, and I really need to restrain myself around the holidays here.  For those of you who are leaning towards yellow, consider the nknonde with me.

I'm looking at at least 1/2 box of tropheus mpulungu and 1/2 petro trewavasae.

There is more on the list that I'm interested in as well, but I need to check sizes of the fish.

Re: Direct Import from Africa - African Cichlids Aquaculture

Donald,

I dont really know if I could handle 14 Show Trewavsae, but the Medium/Large come 40-50 a box.  I could take or handle a dozen larges.  I just do not know if the Show size is 6-8" I could not take that size at this time, in reality.

The Medium/Large is more likely 3-4" size. I think 12-14 of them would not be a problem for me to handle.

I can ask if we could get Trewavasae Med/Large and see?

Let me know..

Geoff

I like the med/large idea better - even the small if I could find someone that would want at least half of them.

You order will need to be finalized no later than December 7th and the Money paid in full to Mike covering the full payment of the fish, shipping, and customs by Monday December 10th.

The Order will be palced December 10th for all those that paid, and the shipment should arrive by the new year or sooner.

If we cannot get things together by these dates, then this order will not be placed till late February.

This is what we got so far.

Re: Direct Import from Africa - African Cichlids Aquaculture

In light of the news from Geoff's last posting, I would like to know if anyone is interested in going in with me on some of the nkonde yellow tropheus?
Due to the cost, I do not want to go for the Ilangi.

Please contact myself and or Geoff, to let us know you intend to purchase this variety. I have decided to go with the nkonde this time around, is anyone intersted in sharing the cost of a box with me?

Re: Direct Import from Africa - African Cichlids Aquaculture

I am really thinking that the feb. date will be much better at least for me in light of the holidays.
