Hoplo Colony FS (ND, USA)

I'm moving soon and need to make room, so these guys might be better in a new home. I'd like to sell them all together, as they get along great and seem to be very social. There are 6 males and 2 females, all full adult size and ready to breed if given the right conditions. I haven't bred them because I don't have the room for 100's of fry that would result. These are the hoplos.

Pickup in Grand Forks, ND or I can deliver locally within reason for gas money. I'd like to get $25 for all of them. If I can't find a breeder to take them, I'll just keep them since they're nice fish. PM any questions.

I wish you'd ship! Been trying to find these guys forever; only have three myself.

What sex are you looking for? I might be able to ship a spare male or two.

I wish I could tell you, no luck sexing them, let alone getting decent pictures!

These really shouldn't be hard to sex: Males have orange pectoral fin, it is also thicker. Females have black/brown and thinner pectoral fin.

Hey, I used to have Hoplo Catfish. I moved across country and couldn't take my lil ones with me. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find any to buy. If you would ship them to Montana, I would definitely buy them!!!

Well, we don't delete threads here on PlanetCatfish. But if something is sold, it would be great of the seller to mark it as sold! ;) Not that I did mark my L128 for sale as "no longer available", because I lost track of the thread.
