Auction is for 20+ eggs of the beautiful Blue Gularis killifish Fundulopanchax sjoestedti Niger Delta, packed in peat for travel. My current strategies for these eggs are to either place them immediately back in water and let them finish their incubation there, or flood them 7 weeks after the pick date. Fry are large, and will thrive on newly hatched baby brine shrimp and microworms immediately, and will accept fine pellets and crushed flake food. Additional eggs available.

THE Classic Blue Gulatis, big & bold & beautiful. Title picture is of male from preceding generation; females as usual show very little color or markings. Camera flash does not represent color very well; male gets a blue background with burgundy markings, and bright orange patches on tail and anal fin. Older males get that striking deeply triple-forked tail fin that the species is known for. An easy killifish to keep, and moderately easy to breed. Great jumpers; keep 'em covered.

Parameters: I don't use heaters, so tanks are in the low 70s in winter and high 70s in summer. Our water is moderately hard (140mg/l) with a pH of 7.5, and I add one tablespoon of aquarium salt per 5 gallons. I've never checked it myself, but a couple of buyers report my water arrives with a TDS of 900-1000 ppm.

Shipping: I ship to US only; shipping may need to be coordinated around weather and postal holidays. Eggs usually ship the Saturday, Monday; or Tuesday after payment clears to reduce risk of spending a weekend parked outside some postal sorting station. Please include $10.00 per box for Priority Mail. Multiple egg purchases can be shipped together for no additional shipping charge, or eggs can ship free with fish.

Payment: please pay by money order or paypal within 3 days of purchase. The email address that Aquabid provides in the winning bidder notice is my paypal address, so if you know your total, feel free to pay before contacting me. Otherwise, I usually send out an email within a day of auction end. If you prefer to pay by money order, the Aquabid address is again correct; please let me know when money order is in the mail. I am often looking to clear tanks to make room for the next hatch, so prompt payment is always appreciated.

Replacement: Some eggs do not survive the rigors of shipping. If you get a zero or meager hatch after their due date, I will either replace or refund the price of the eggs. The most dangerous part of their trip is often the time spent sitting in the mailbox or on the porch. If you unable to be home for mail delivery, please consider having the parcel held at your local post office for you to pick up. Shipping charges are not refundable.
