Cheap & Zebra Pleco do not belong in the same sentance.

Auburn Aquarium in Sydney have some, ask for Anthony.

Price depends on availability; atm $900-$700.

Have spoken to a few people that sent money but still no fish, apparently been delayed 3 times. Has anybody received their fish???
Title: HEHEHE
Post by: Boots n all on August 24, 2005, 02:14:02 PM
l dont believe that anyone would be that silly to send money with out seeing the fish or knowing the guy OR some one that could speak on his behalf?
 Especially after the questions that we posted up on this(the old QLD) and other forums that did not get a response from George.
Is anyone able to speak on his behalf that we all know? an LFS maybe?
as l and others said earlier George said "No visitors you might be AQIS"
a week later "Everyone is welcome to our Field day" not very consistant is he :?:

Post by: Bristlenosenut on August 24, 2005, 04:47:06 PM
he also would not let me pick up the fish at the field day or in town.

Title: price of Zebs
Post by: Alan Caboolture on September 20, 2005, 11:36:08 PM
You can't really put a price on these things.     It is what the buyers are prepared to pay.

I know of 8 adult Zebs , not little tidlers, 4 year old fish, that changed hands for $6,000.     And 3 adult fish that sold for $500 (the lot , not each  8O ).

They are not a regularly available line so there is no general price.

Alan.

Sheesh....... the price breeders in Canada are getting at the LFS !!!  $30

In Germany, breeders are only getting 20  Euros ,and are happy with that.
