I might be interested. What he needs though is web designer that understand not to put black text on the first image (dark one) that pops up when you go to his website haha! I’ll check it out though and let you know. If I buy some, you will deliver them to my house, correct?

Cody, when you get yours, maybe Stickboy97 can left my fishes in your home and you can delivery to me [emoji12]

Sorry, you’re breaking up. I’m having trouble hearing you

 

[Cody]

Cody if your going to order let me know.

So I looked through his current inventory and he doesn’t have any clownfish. That’s mostly what I was looking for. I need some cheap and hardy biomass.

 

[TriggerFan]

You need to email Mike as he orders fish every week. That inventory is for fish already acclimated or QTd ready to go.

 

[Reefahholic]

How long is his total QT period? Price?

Just curious...tough business to be in.

 

[ITreefer]

Not that much higher than LiveAquaria prices lol

 

[Stickboy97]

Not that much higher than local prices either.

David, what are wanting to Order? @reeftopia

copperband butterfly

copperband butterfly

David, you’re not supposed to put copper in a reef tank. It will kill invertebrates.

 

[reeftopia]

Could have sworn thats what you told me to do. Cody

He must be getting wholesale fish and treating them as a hobby and then realized there could be a small profit made.

That is exactly what I do, I buy wholesale and threat fish and sell them to clients that put in requests. I have been doing this for 3 years now.
I am a software programmer and own 2 businesses in Tulsa OK. This is simply a hobby and way to make sure most hobbyist carry healthy livestock.
I am not in it for the money and honestly it doesnt give me enough money by the end of the month either. I think the best i ever put in my pocket was closet o $900 in a month.
25% doa 25% mortality rate through qt and you are breaking even.
And i give out more free livestock than requested, I cover fish even after its been in clients tank for weeks. Ask any of my previous clients.
I am only in it to make sure livestock is healthy and please get to enjoy the fish without having to worry about parasites. That is why my prices are almost same as lfs or online retailer. (more encouragement for qted fish)

Well, you are a better man than me sir. I’ve quarantined and treated enough fish to drive me nutty. Doing it for other people would be very difficult and time consuming. I could only do it if I had the passion I once did when I was younger. Glad you make a little money, because you definitely deserve it.

I'm curious to what he can do. I'm considering adding another 2 Pyramid butterflies, maybe an Austrailian type Copperband (Mulleri), & a powder blue - not all at once!

My fish die within a couple of days (inexplicably) or after several years <shrug>?

I emailed him about those possibilities.

 

[Dr.Reef]

Honestly my experience with pyramid butterflies is the same. They die after so long.
Copperband you requested is rare but I am on hunt for it.

 

[OceansX]

Thank you!

In my email I wrote C. marginalis, could you also see if a Chelmon Muelleri is a possibility? I'm hoping to get one that would work in a mixed-reef (always a gamble).

 

[reeftopia]

Are we still looking at doing this?

 

[Dr.Reef]

I'll look for both and whichever one I find i'll let you know.
