Has Any-One In Birimngham Noticed This?

[Knox213]

Looking around birmingham lately...

Hav'nt seen a SINGLE Half moon betta.

Nor do i see Endlers

I might ask my LFS ( Earls Aquatics ) If I Can have a sneak preview of there next shipment ( if thats aloud? ) at the moment they have the "Cichlid" Theme nice cichlids. REALY nice... if only if only i had a bigger tank

So anyway.


Has any-one else experianced this?

Is it me going nuts over a fish or is it that they ar'nt sold in LFS and sold by private sellers.
I Dont know...
Earls Aquatics?
Or
A&D?

Both have there little issues but some-one pick...

Big stores Only care about money - A&D

Little stores Have a few dead fish - Earls aquatics

I have never seen a single halfmoon betta in any fish shop. All VT with the odd CT. Endlers are rare too. One LFS said it was because they are so small they get stuck in the large filters. They are kitting out some new tanks with filters suitable for smaller fish soon-can't wait

 

[Haych]

yup.

i am going to have to buy from ebay.

i refuse to use aquabid after seeing how mch justkia paid!!

endlers are sold here in ripples (inside planters) in tamworth (which isnt just too far from you)

I'll Check out my LFS this week

I Wonder what Dodje Fish there selling this week.
I Dont know what the hell i was tihkning about the other night but i had a dream i was in my LFS and there was a whale going for £7000 And wit was smiling at me I Think im on drugs...

Anyway.
I Know! Halfmoons are Atleast £20 Each! i want to get some endlers to breed soon. And If there is'nt any around i'll just breed more mollies I love my One domenation molly ( if i spelt it right) Either mollies or Guppys.

 

[Haych]

they have male endlers in ripples, but only female guppies.

i saw some feeder guppys in my LFS a couple weeks back they had NO couler what so ever... and apparntly Female endlers have No couler do you think they may habve been endlers or plain feeder fish ( witch i find stupid... what other fish would need to eat another fish OK I bet theres a few but stilll )



I Brought some pretty guppys that week

 

[Haych]

females are supposed be colourless, but fancy guppy females do have colour.

depends on their size too

One of the very best, and most reasonably priced, sources of fish is your local aquarium society. Most of them have small auctions as part of their regular monthly meetings and often hold shows and/or larger auctions that are open to the public. If you raise any fish yourself, it's a good place to sell some of them. New members are always welcomed.

Here's our list for the UK:

Neither Earl's nor A&D are that great imo. Why don't you try Shirley Aquatics or Maidenhead Aquatics in Solihull?

 

[mr130gallon]

the male feeder guppys at my lfs look like endlers but are probably crossbreeds

i am very dubious about using these after the fish i bought died of a nasty disease (which luckily didnt spread to mine)
