Do you work for ND?
I own the store in Kingwood. So I can do whatever i want there. I was trying to figure out where I could put the 135, but it would get in the way I think.
So are you willing to do a group buy on supplements.....wait how about a HBF discount?

Re: Direct Import from Africa - African Cichlids Aquaculture
ok, I just measured and I can fit the 75 gallon in my store bathroom of all places. Kinda nice because my mop sink will be right next to it so I will have easy access for water changes.
I will probably be lowering my number of trophs and possibly switching variants, but I am still in on this deal though.

I offered to bring stuff to the meeting that is taking place this friday and sell it for just over my cost and people basically laughed at me. To answer the question, yes. PM me for info
Re: Direct Import from Africa - African Cichlids Aquaculture

Re: Direct Import from Africa - African Cichlids Aquaculture
Geoff,
I asked Ek this, but do we(HFB members) have to get an entire box of each variant, or am I correct in think Mike was going to buy in on any unfull boxes to resell.

Well, I'm not Geoff, but to answer your question...yes!
Re: Direct Import from Africa - African Cichlids Aquaculture
ND,
All box orders must total atleast 50% of the box for it to be imported.
Therefore, if it is one person or its 10 people, it must atleast total 50% of the box to be imported.
The Shipping is split equally by every person on the box, even if one person orders 40 and the other only orders 12.
PERSONAL OPTION ONLY: If, the entire box is sold, I have no problem with the people themselves dividing the cost per order size. Something to consider is, at $225 per box and 56 Tropheus per box that is $4.02 in shipping per fish. If the price of the fish is $7.00 then the actual purchase price of the fish is $11.02 per fish. If the people on the box can all agree to do it that way, then I have no problem if the person who orders 40 and the person who orders 16 agree that they will pay $11.02 per fish. Each one of them has to be in agreement to make that happen. It will not be required to do that, only a agreement by them.
Take care,
Geoff

Re: Direct Import from Africa - African Cichlids Aquaculture
Geoff, I'm going to tenatively take the remaining 16 Chipimbis for now. Not sure if it will work out with the tank situation, but I'd like to reserve them if I can.
Re: Direct Import from Africa - African Cichlids Aquaculture
I will reserve them for you at this time, but I need to know ASAP if you will be 100% taking them or not.
