Description

First time offered anywhere in North America! You are bidding on 6 fish F-1, 1-1.5 inches in length. You will get both boys and girls in the mix. While we were sloshing through the tiny mud creeks to collect our prized �Wapoga Red Laser� Melanotaenia rainbowfish we were also collecting this beautiful yellow with red finned Chilatherina alleni. This fish also appeared on the front cover of the Rainbowfish Aqualog and has been lusted after by rainbowfish enthusiasts for almost 10 years. Our wild caught fish are just getting big enough to start showing some of the amazing colors that we saw on the too large to keep adult fish. The larger adults in addition to a brilliant yellow body and red tipped fins also had a sort of �red-dyed� look on portions of their body, like they had been red-stained just below their dorsal. You can see it in some of the photos posted but doesn�t show up on the fish until they get much older. Like their bluish cousins from Siriwo these alleni from Wapoga are extremely active and in constant motion. They are just amazing to watch. Just like most other rainbowfish they are easy to keep and breed, just perform quality water changes and feed them well. If you�re tired of store bought crossed and washed out junk rainbowfish I have a better suggestion! Buy your rainbowfish from me. If you�re tired of seeing auctions that are just foisting the same Far East wholesaler, or worse, FLORIDA crap as their own, buy your rainbowfish from me. You get what you pay for� I raise and breed more species and location (river) variants of rainbowfish than anyone else in the United States. My rainbowfish are all raised by me and not imported from some offshore farm. My aquariums are carefully marked to ensure that similar species are not mixed up or crossed. So many rainbowfish look very similar when they are small so attention to detail is vital. You will see in my listings rainbowfish that have never been offered EVER in the United States. You�ll get prompt and courteous service and you�ll get some great fish that you�ll enjoy for years to come. When the auction ends on Saturday evening I would like to have an email by Sunday morning so I know whether a PayPal payment is coming shortly or whether we are waiting for a MO. Payment must be made within 5 days after the auction ends. If I am shipping on Monday morning your prizes need to have a good water change and go without food for 24 + hours so that they can be shipped to you in optimal shape. Without the 24 hour fast rainbowfish can easily get ammonia burn or worse. Express mail shipping is $36 or less for those that live closer. Save some shipping dollars by buying more than one auction. Rainbowfish really need to have a lot of oxygen to survive. I ship all of my fish in breather bags. I really recommend getting your rainbowfish via Express Mail instead of Priority. Live fish guarantee only with Express mail. Guarantee with immediate digital picture of dead fish - in the bag provides credit for the replacement of DOA fish. Guarantee does not include the cost of shipping. Guarantee does not extend to replacement fish. Happy Bidding!
