Description

This very special guppy strain was developed by my dear friend, K. Tanaka from Osaka, Japan. This unique strain throws both gray and blonde bodies... This auction is for one sexed pair of Candle Tails guppies. Extras are included as a gift. I have had numerous requests asking if I would sell my colored females out of this strain. The pair that I am offering in this auction will come from the tank that produces the most colored females. Due to the limited quantity of stock that I currently have to work with, the colored females are not for sale. I have to keep them as breeder females to ensure that the "colored female" will continue to come out of the strain. This way everyone can continue to enjoy the Candle Tail strain. This strain will also occasionally throw some pink, blue and green females. This unique trait is a result of line breeding the Candle Tails which was done by Mr. Tanaka, myself and my fish friend Jan. Your fish will be packed in an insulated styrofoam box with a heat pack. I always include extras!!!!! "Many thanks to Mitchell Weintraub from www.livefins.com, Kyle Duhn, and a special thanks to Perry Davis for sending this strain back to me so I could keep it around to offer back to the hobby......I also want to thank Amy Maloney for sending me back so many special Tanaka strains. I don't know what I'd do without all my fish friends! PLEASE DO NOT DUPLICATE OR USE THIS PHOTO IN ANY WAY. I APPRECIATE YOUR UNDERSTANDING. Be sure to contact me about my live arrive guarantee and about overnight shipping charges.... Sales tax applies for Mississippi residents. *I reserve the right to refund you if I feel that the fish will not make the trip due to extreme weather conditions. IN THE UNLIKELY EVENT THAT YOU HAVE A DOA: I reserve the right to refund you (minus the shipping charges) in the unlikely event of a DOA....if replacement pair is unavailable. I consider myself a true hobbyist and I can ensure you that I will do everything humanly possible to make this a pleasant transaction for both of us:) *You must contact me with CLEAR pictures within the first hour of arrival to be eligible for the consideration of DOA replacement. In extreme weather conditions, I reserve the right to request that the buyer do a "Hold for Pick Up" at your local post office, if I feel that it is best for the fish, their arrival, and to ensure that your fish have a smooth acclimation. Your new guppies will come with a lifetime guarantee of support that will be provided by me. I am available 24/7 to help with any issues or concerns that you may have regarding your new guppies. Feel free to ask questions.... and ask for additional photos. Flat Rate Shipping for Priority Mail is $15.00 Please add $2.50 to your order if your box requires a heat pack. Please contact me for overnight shipping charges.... Shipping to the United States and Puerto Rico only....Sorry for the inconvenience... The weather forecast will be checked thoroughly for each shipping destination and this will depend on the day that I choose to ship your guppies. Price is always subject to availability. Thank You for your patience and understanding with this situation. I appreciate your interest in my auction! I RECENTLY WAS CONTACTED BY AN AQUABIDDER AND ASKED IF I WOULD SEND PICTURES OF MY BLONDE AND GRAY FEMALES. I AM HAPPY TO SHARE ANY PHOTOGRAPHS WITH YOU THAT MR. KENJIRO TANAKA AND I HAVE TAKEN OF THESE STRAINS BUT I WILL NOT REMOVE MY FISH FOR QUICK PHOTO SESSIONS DUE TO THE RISK THAT IS INVOLVED EVERY TIME A FISH IS REMOVED FROM THEIR TANK. OVER THE YEARS, I HAVE LOST BEAUTIFUL BREEDER MALES FROM JUMPING OUT OF PHOTO GLASSES AND THERE IS ALWAYS A RISK THAT A DISEASE CAN BREAK OUT. I DO THIS FOR A PERSONAL HOBBY AND I HAVE VERY LIMITED STOCK AVAILABLE TO OFFER TO THE HOBBY AT THIS TIME. I APOLOGIZE THAT I CANNOT FURFILL THIS TYPE OF REQUEST AT THIS TIME. MAYBE IN THE FUTURE IF I GET MY STOCK NUMBERS A LITTLE HIGHER, I CAN TAKE THESE TYPES OF RISKS! LOL I APPRECIATE YOUR UNDERSTANDING. BROOKE
