Description

You are bidding on 1 unsexed fish, sized at 1.75� or larger TL, picked randomly from a batch of young that I currently have which are all showing the typical color for the specie, none are covered with extreme white as you may have seen in some publications. These fish can be quite variable in color and markings. And No�I do not have any that are showing more white to sell at this time! THIS STARTING PRICE IS THE LOWEST PRICE I HAVE EVER STARTED THESE AT on AquaBid and there is no reserve! In addition, the winner of the auction will have the option to buy more at the same winning price per fish.

I picked up my breeders as young adults while attending the Aqua Ark Convention in Norway in 2009; they came from breeder Haakon Haagensen in Bergen, Norway. Check out Haakon�s article, �Chaos in black and white�, on page 56 of the May/June 2014 issue of AMAZONAS Magazine. This will help explain the situation with trying to ID these fish. Okay, I know that everyone that reads this is going to have an opinion on what these fish are�not be rude or ignorant to anyone, but I don�t want to engage in any arguments about them. Why you may ask: it could go on FOREVER and there is no definite answer; if you are a serious Pleco fan you already know this!! I simply don�t have forever to spend on an endless debate! I spend my days tending to my fish, not sitting in front of a computer typing! I am personal friends with some of the top catfish hobbyists in Germany and they say there is no reason not to call these fish L236 as I received them as....that's good enough for me. I can send you a copy of an article I wrote on the complete story of my fish and my breeding success with them, along with more photos of them, just send me your email address at sales@alloddballaquatics.com and I�ll email you a copy. Then you can determine if you want them or not. I have already sold a good many of my L236 to hobbyists here in the USA and have not had any complaints about them yet�.in fact, many of them even ordered more! Photo shows a group of random fish, some young at different ages & sizes, a breeder and a great looking offspring that came out in one of the spawns. I have been keeping all the exceptionally good looking offspring to build a breeding group of nice fish, in hopes of producing a better looking line.

Remember these are tank raised fish, being naturally spawned and raised in aquariums in our own hatchery, NOT stressed out, emaciated imported fish that just arrived in the USA and are ready to die! In addition, these are NOT pond raised or farm raised using artificial methods either, as some others sellers call �tank raised�!!

We like to say our fish are ... Proudly Pennsylvania Produced�

Only method of shipping offered is USPS Express Shipping for a flat rate of $50.00 for up to 4 fish to your home or workplace, or a good idea to think about using the �hold for pick up� (at post office) option to help protect the shipment from a day of exposure to weather conditions as it rides around in a mail truck for hours prior to delivery to your home. ALSO, this method can sometimes speed up the delivery times on scheduled 2 day deliveries to next day. Email me your shipping zip code for delivery times as some USPS Express is a 2 day delivery.

Live delivery will be guaranteed, as long as someone is present to receive & sign for shipment on the first delivery attempt. If using the �hold for pick up� service or a PO Box, packages must be picked up within 4 hours once available at your post office. - - - Live delivery is guaranteed to you, but I DO NOT GUARANTEE THE DELIVERY TIME!

I don't use USPS Priority Mail (and please don't ask me to, saying you will take the risk!) because they are so unpredictable and unreliable. I have already had packages in the past take up to two weeks to get delivered; I will not to take a gamble with living things!!! Let us avoid any problems, headaches, arguments and hard feelings just to try and save a few dollars!!

Again, email me at sales@alloddballaquatics.com BEFORE YOU BID if you have ANY questions about the shipping or ANY other possible questions. Payment must be sent within 5 days of auction end, PLEASE! PayPal or United States Postal Service Money Orders accepted only. There will be a 3% additional cost added to the final total once shipping is calculated in, this is to help cover some of the banking, service and handling fees that I get hit with! THANKS FOR LOOKING AND MAKE SURE TO CHECK OUT ALL MY OTHER AUCTIONS, COMBINE WINNING AUCTIONS TO SAVE ON SHIPPING COST!
