Description


ORYZIAS WOWORAE, ADULT FIRE RED SHRIMP, FREE SHIPPING, NO RESERVE!

It's STILL summer, Aquabid!

Don't forget about my COOL packages for a WARM tank...Bid it up, people!

In this Auction:

Oryzias woworae

Oryzias woworae

Fire Red Shrimp

Fire Red Shrimp
Up for bidding are the following awesome and HARDY pieces of livestock:
  • 6 F1 juvie Oryzias woworae (1/2 inch)
  • 10 Adult Taiwan Fire Red Shrimp
  • optional free baby marbled crayfish
This is an awesome package for a hobbyist in a warmer climate in the summer. Anybody out there in Miami or Phoenix having a hard time keeping your tanks below 80F this summer? Well then, have I got a package of stuff for you!

The first thing I'm going to put in this box is a group of juvie "Blue Neon Ricefish" or "Daisy's Ricefish," Oryzias woworae. These are a red-hot fish that was jut discovered in Sulawesi a few years ago and was just given a name in 2010. Follow the link below for some more information about the discovery of these fish. These fish are a load of fun to keep! They are active, easy to breed, and very attractive fish. Like other rice fish, they have amazing piercing blue eyes that will catch your attention from the other side of the fish room. Unlike other ricefish species, they also have an attractive ice blue coloration on the rest of their bodies with red highlights. These fish are lookers. You will get 8 approximately 1/2 inch F1 juvies (some may be slightly bigger or slightly smaller). These guys love Lotoffish mix #2 food and absolutely thrive at 80-85 F and 7-7.8 pH.

Breeding Daisy's Ricefish is as easy as falling off a bike (And I'm pretty clumsy!). I don't even bother with mops. I have a small tank for the fry and a larger tank for the adults. I have lots of floating Hornwort in the tank with the adults and they attach their eggs to it. Then every day around mid-morning (fortunately, my tank is in my office at work!), I take a close look near the surface of the tank. Almost every day, I find 3-5 tiny, newly hatched fry. I carefully scoop them out of the tank with a net and gently drop them in the small fry-rearing tank. EASY AS PIE!

The last thing we're going to put in this box is 10 awesome ADULT Taiwan Fire Red shrimp. These guys are a flaming red variant of Neocaridina heteropoda, are beautiful, prolific breeders, and very hardy. This is the same line of these shrimp that Lotsoffish has been selling as Sakura/Fire Red shrimp. They sure look awesome in his photos. Pete got them from Astrochick00, and if you look at my feedback, you can see that she got them from me. I got them originally from Fishshimps. You can check out his current auctions for 10 Adults of this strain that are going for 69.99. Get 'em from me with NO RESERVE and FREE SHIPPING!

If you win this auction, for $15 extra, you have the option of adding a trio of one of the following types of Endlers: 1) Fire Red Flame Tail; 2) Endlers sp#2; 3) Top Yellow Sword; 4) Tiger Endlers; 5) Lime Green. Follow the below link for pictures of these different Endlers variants:

Or, if you're interested we'll throw in some baby Marmorkrebs (marbled crays) for free.

We're going to stuff all of this into a box and ship it to you for FREE with a LIVE ARRIVAL GUARANTEE. (No guarantee for any extras included in the box.) We ship via Priority Mail in a Styrofoam-lined box with Kordon breather bags. Heat packs are no extra charge. We offer a NO RISK LIVE ARRIVAL GUARANTEE. By no risk, we mean that if your animals arrive DOA, whether it's our fault or the fault of the USPS, we will re-ship them at NO ADDITIONAL COST TO YOU. How many sellers on Aquabid offer that kind of guarantee? Just email us a digital picture of the dead fish in the unopened bag within 2 hrs of the first delivery attempt. We ship to the continental USA only.

Payment is via Paypal only. Send payment within 24 hrs of close of auction to lexinverts1@gmail.com, please. Contact us with questions at lexinverts1@gmail.com.
