Hey folks,
Well the Starfire Red® Gourami launch did not disappoint. Response was overwhelming but in a good way. Good news is we still have plenty available for next week's orders so everyone will be able to restock. We've already seen some posts on social media (other than ours) about them and the response has been great so far. So if you weren't able to order this past week here's your chance to see what all the fuss is about. And just a reminder we have good numbers on the Starfire Red® as well. Size is really nice on these right now and they pair great with the Gouramis.
Finally got Colombia in this week. And while some of the availability is still pretty limited we did get restocks on some very popular items. First I will have to say are the Ruby Tetras. We have not had these in forever despite multiple attempts at ordering them. These can be classified as a "nano" fish and sell out almost immediately every time we get them. Next up as far as popularity go are the Green Neons. I've said it a thousand times but that's because it's true, these sell well on name alone. For Plecos we got refills on Royals, Green Phantoms, Colombian Zebras and Snowballs. Cories saw restocks on Skunks, Agassizi, Punctatus and the highly sought after Pygmy. And no Colombia order would be complete without at least a couple Red Pikes. And that's exactly what we got, a couple.
For Asian imports "nano" fish seem to be the big thing lately. Got in a new batch of Tiger Badis. These will go nicely with the Scarlets we had last week. Choprai Danios came in about as big and as bright as they get. You're gonna hear me say that a lot this week because it's true as we are at the time of year where the water temps are elevated and as a result so are the growth rates. And if it's growth you're looking for then look no further than the Redtail Cats. Small for now but eventually grow up to be legit river monsters. And speaking of monsters we finally got in Hifin Banded Loaches, just in time for pond season (which is exactly where they belong). But if you're looking something more aquarium friendly then check out the newly restocked Tricolor Barbs. Ever since we stared bringing those in back in January they have been flying out of here.
As much as I am not a huge fan of the heat down here in Florida I am a fan of what that means for fish availability and size. Starting with the Rainbows I don't think there's a single one that isn't running oversize at the moment. Medium Turquoise are probably the leader in this category but really can't go wrong with any of them. Diamond Tetras are practically show size this week. Cherry Barbs are running at a nice size with great color. Gold Zebra Danios are gigantic. For African Cichlids medium mix male Peacocks might be the best bang for the buck and not far behind them are the Yellow Albino Swallowtails.
