Re: Direct Import from Africa - African Cichlids Aquaculture

I need to finalize everything with my significant other, but I will take the 28 chaitika left on the second box and may be interested in getting a second variant.

[geoff_tropheus]

Re: Direct Import from Africa - African Cichlids Aquaculture

NDsuperduty : I have done that for you.  I do not know if you plan to combine your two groups together, but there is room for Chipimbi and Mpulungu as well.  Neither one could go with the Chaitika, but they are both really nice fish.

If your name is on the list above and you have not gotten the full price list, please send me your email and I will send it to you.

Take care,

Geoff

Re: Direct Import from Africa - African Cichlids Aquaculture

Am I mistaken or are all the tropheus on the list moori?

[geoff_tropheus]

Re: Direct Import from Africa - African Cichlids Aquaculture

Yes they are all Moorii.  Unfortunately, I do not know of any non-moorii that comes from Zambia.  Does anyone else know?

If your looking for a second colony to go with the Chaitika,  I would only suggest to you Duboisi, brichardi, mpimbwe, annectens, or other moorii for the northern part of the lake - sp.black

Duboisi in my opinion is the only true safe mix for Tropheus combinations.

I know it may be a large plunge for you, but Petrochromis Trewavasae Med/Large would be a really nice mix with Chaitika Blue Rainbow, in a 180 gallon aquarium.  Polyodon would be way too agressive for a beginer.

Just some suggestions..

Re: Direct Import from Africa - African Cichlids Aquaculture

Thanks geoff.  I will have to do a little more research on those to see if that is something I want to get into.  I know yall want to end this earlier than planned so I will decide within a few days.

Re: Direct Import from Africa - African Cichlids Aquaculture

Will those half boxes that Mike is picking be available for purchase after the fact?


I am backing out of the Tropheus buy cause none listed really spark my interest but the Trews I might be interested in if I can't get the Uwiles from Delock.

WHEN DO YOU WANT THEM?

Re: Direct Import from Africa - African Cichlids Aquaculture

I am changing the substrate hopefully this weekend.... if able I would like to come see them afterwards...then I will probably fall in love with them and ditch my Mobas for marbles...should be done by then.

Re: Direct Import from Africa - African Cichlids Aquaculture

Quoc,

I will hold off on deleting you from the order till the end of this week.

All of the fish that Mike has to buy in order to fill the boxes and have them imported will be availible for sale.  The price of them will need to be between you and Mike, as to wether they will have pricing as if you imported them with us, or if they will have market value placed on them.

Take care,

Geoff

Re: Direct Import from Africa - African Cichlids Aquaculture

Looks like I'm doing a 1/4 box Syno Polli with Fire Chair.  Fire Chair, if your other 1/4 partner pulls out, I'll take his/her quarter as well.

And you already have the rest...

1/4 Syno Polli
1/2 Trop Mpulungu
1/4 Petro Trew

Re: Direct Import from Africa - African Cichlids Aquaculture

Fire Chair needs to tell me he is also committed to the box.

Donald, I made your changes to the list.
