For 50 Euros you should get them quickly! Wholesalers are asking 44 euros for small ones now!

Good luck with your shipment Guapote118. I remember how excited I was when my shipment arrived a few weeks back. I think I was more stressed out then the fish were...lol. All my zebras are doing great! No losses :)

price of zebras

Post by worton[pl] »

Hi all,
I wonder why you have to pay that much for your zebras.
Here in Poland I have to pay about 50 PLN for this fish.
1$=4PLN so it's something about 13$ :]
Transporting fish from Southern America to eastern Europe takes much more time I think and also much more money thats why I'm thinking about.
