Looking for juvies or adults of either species (340/129). Must be in the Milwaukee area or ship for a reasonable price to 53189 se wi.Also interested in a group of whiptail catfish.

Lmk what you have and price.


removed this: As for the corys, I dont want super common ones but would like to not spend a ton per fish. Duplicaras is my favorite species along with the lasers.

There will be L129 juvies available in the room sales at the catfish convention. The quantities are pretty limited.

Hi nv,

www.wetspot.com has Corydoras adolfoi, C. duplicareous and several other less common Corys. I have always been happy with how well wetspot packs their fish and they seem to be getting a good deal on UPS over night shipping rates.
I don't know anyone who currently has any of the Plecos you seek although there are many nice smaller species of Hypancistrus available from sellers listing on www.aquabid.com

Thanks Larry,

I am getting 20 ernhardti (that is spelt wrong) from a guy locally in Nov.

I am/was also contacted by someone selling on AB. I hope I can steal the auction he has going.

BTW, do you have any 333's going this year?

I may have some L333 to sell. I didn't encourage their breeding these past years but I might have 12 which are about 2-1/2".
I think I will decide to keep them since my wild breeders are getting pretty old.
I had 10 wild Corydoras erhardti once but I never bred them.
They are a nice species.
C. hastatus is my favorite hands down but one other I like is C-121. I had some and they spawned a little but all their eggs died.
Then I introduced some Tetras straight from the LFS instead of going through quarantine. I
Then some plague hit them and wiped them out within days. So I never did get the chance to set them up for breeding in very soft acidic water which I think they prefer.
I probably could have saved them if then I had the supply of Chloramphenicol HCl I have now. 250 mg/5 US gal dosage.
Doesn't mess up the water although it can kill off biological filtration bacteria.
I save the stuff for emergencies. I had to get some through somewhat shady means. It is the most useful wide spectrum antibiotic for bacterial fish diseases but it is very heavily restricted.

I do have a bunch of L340 fry, but they are small, the biggest being maybe 1 1/2".
