Description



IMPORTANT: I ship to the address provided in your payment. If paying by paypal, please, please make sure that shipping address is correct before clicking the send button. Shipping days get hectic, and it's easy to miss requests to ship elsewhere. Thanks...

Auction is for 3 males of the beautiful African Annual killifish Nothobranchius rachovii Beira 98. They are less than 1" long as of this writing, just beginning to color up. Pictures are of a mature male and a juvenile male of previous generations. Sorry, I have no females available currently.

This is a classic annual killifish and, in my book, the most beautiful aquarium fish in the world. Males get about 2" long. This is a truly annual killifish with a fairly short lifespan of perhaps 8 months to a year or so (these were hatched 4/1/2021). Occasional 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: Shipping time may need to be coordinated around postal holidays and weather. Priority Mail (typically 2-4 days) is $25 per shipment, but live arrival is not guaranteed. Express Mail (1-2 days) usually starts at about $55, depending on your distance from Milwaukee, and is highly recommended. Please email a list of fish you wish to purchase and your ZIP code, and I will get you a quote.

Payment: please pay by 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. Please let me know if you would like me to send a paypal invoice. I am often looking to clear tanks to make room for the next hatch, so prompt payment is always appreciated.

Replacement: In the unlikely event that fish perish during shipping, I will either replace or refund the price of the fish, provided that you let me know of the loss within two hours of the time tracking shows delivery. 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.
