Description

You are bidding on a sexed pair of tank raised Ancistrus sp. "Schneeflocke" (or as we say in the USA, "Snowflake"), sized at 2.5". There has not been an L-number assigned to these yet! My photo is of an adult pair from my breeding group to give you an idea of what they will grow into. These are another species that was introduced to the USA hobby by well known hobbyist, Stephan Tanner. These are dwarf bristlenose reaching just about 3.5" TL when fully grown and are known for their awesome snowflake shaped spots on their body. They originally showed up in an import via Manaus, Brazil to Germany a good many years ago and are rarely seen available in the hobby today. These are probably F4 young.

Some additional material on them can be found at: --- https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=de&u=http://www.l-welse.com/reviewpost/showproduct.php/product/1567/cat/all&prev=search

Remember these are healthy, tank raised fish, being naturally spawned and raised in aquariums, NOT stressed out, emaciated imported fish (which are often misidentified) that just arrived in the USA and are ready to die! These are NOT pond raised or farm raised using artificial methods either, as some others call �tank raised�!!

Only method of shipping offered is USPS Express Shipping for $50, Serious bidders, BEFORE YOU BID, Email me your shipping zip code for delivery times as some USPS Express is a 2 day delivery.

High temperatures may delay shipping of fish

Live delivery will be guaranteed, as long as someone is present to receive & sign for shipment on the first delivery attempt. (Please make sure fish are unpacked & tended to upon arrival, as any DOA must be report to me within an hour of package acceptance. Photos of DOA in original, unopened bag required.). If using the �hold for pick up� option or a PO Box, packages must be picked up within 2 hours once available at your post office.

Live delivery is guaranteed to you, but I DO NOT GUARANTEE THE DELIVERY TIME! This means I guarantee you get live, healthy fish, if they arrive an hour late or day late, but alive and in good condition, you do not get any money back for the late delivery.

I do not 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 coryjeb@comcast.net 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!
