PICTURES shot in a 2.5 gal. photo tank. The fish don’t hold still & I am a poor photographer. I was able to shoot all the fish in in two groups of 3 in a single shot. There is also one shot from above of all 6 fish.

They can be PICKED UP in zip code 10549 (about 40 mi NNE of Manhattan, NYC). This can take place on our screened terrace- 3 walls are screens- it is essentially outdoors. Only I and my brother live here- we are both fully vaccinated re Covid.
A MEET may be possible depending on the distance.

I can only SHIP if you can email me a shipping label I can print. It must be for a major shipper with an account cleared to ship fish. I will supply the box dimensions, weight and my needed info. You handle shipping charges. I offer the standard live arrival guarantee if you use FedEx or UPS. I can ship USPS Express Mail, but I cannot guarantee live arrival with them.

How I size my fish:

[TwoTankAmin]

Bad news. I had to move a few fish to different tanks today, this included the above group. To my dismay I discovered the minimal remains of one of the fish in this group dead.

I will select a suitable replacement, take a picture and add it to this thread. Unfortunately, I am not sure which of the six fish was lost.

Dang. Sorry TTA.

[TwoTankAmin]

Considering I had to catch a couple of hundred+ fish, size them, sort them and get them into various holding tanks losing just one is close to a miracle. On average I would say I netted each fish at least 3 times during the process. So I essentially netted something over 600 times.

I am about to head out to my pleco breeding space in our second building to nab and move the previously sold 173 group and to find the replacement fish for this listing.

[Ltygress]

Too bad you aren't interested in L024. I'd do a trade with ya if you were!

[TwoTankAmin]

As promised, I selected a replacement fish. It is 2.25" TL which is bigger than the one lost.

I would love an L24, but I have mo place I could keep it.

[TwoTankAmin]

The fish have been sold pending my ability to get them shipped. i should be able to pull this off in the next few weeks.

I am happy a couple of members here were able to take advantage of the low pricing I had on these fish. I see them for sale as imports for $210 - $300 a fish from 1.5 - 2.25 inches if you take 50 fish and pay all the fees to get them here. They say grade A fish are $500 at 1.5 inch. I grade a lot of mine that way, But what do I know
