Description

Hello Folks!
I don't get my "Fire" template out all that often. I sorta save it for fish like these. You are looking at some Full grown adult Orange Blossom Swordtails in the photo's below.
You're not bidding on those.
I ALREADY sold those here at Aquabid last December. Mon Dec 7 2009 to be exact. I sold them, plus about an hour later I sold the only other trio I have ever seen in my life, to another bidder "Mikey2" who offered to match the winning bid of 108.00. So I sold 2 trios of these fish for 216.00 total.
If you go look at that auction you will see good old Jeff Hiller was trying to win them too and he wanted to buy a trio from me at 108.00 also, but I didn't have any more to sell so he was out of luck. LOL! When the breeder Mike, of Mikeswetpets, dropped these fish off to me I MADE HIM take a Pr. back home with him because he had bought these awesome fish at a fish auction in Ohio a few Months earlier and I don't think he realized just how RARE or awesome these fish really were so I figured once Mike got them going again I would have more to sell.
Well, that didn't happen. Mike ended up falling ill and LOSING the strain so that outta be the end of the story. But it's NOT!
I am big on saving "insurance fish" just so I don't lose a strain like this and I learned a very important lesson from all of this. LOL! Sometimes even that doesn't work!
Click that link there and go take a look at the original auction I was just talking about. 1st Orange Blossom Swordtail Auction!











So anyway, this whole Orange Blossom Swordtail annoyed the hell out of me so I did what any insane hobbyist does when he is out of his mind wanting a fish. I decided I had to somehow get this strain back here to NY, and I DID!
I waited a few Months, crossed my fingers, and contacted the winner of the first auction and my friend Mikey2 over in Hawaii and low and behold Mikey2 actually was breeding them and he had a great story to tell me regarding what they are throwing and how totally awesome they were doing!
I told Mikey2 how Mikeswetpets had gotten sick and we had lost the strain etc, etc, and I worked a fantastic trade out with him and actually ended up getting some of these fish back AND some wonderful Hifin Gold Wag Bleeding Heart Platys too!
And now without further ado you are going to get the chance to own some of the RAREST, hardest to find, unbelievably awesome Swordtails you will ever see in your lifetime.
Win this auction and I will send you a Trio of AWESOME Orange Blossom Swordtails plus the 3 extra Orange Blossom Swordtail "sports" you see below.
These fish will throw about 33% Orange Blossom Swordtails, 33% BRIGHT RED Albino Swordtails and about 33% "White Albino Swordtails like you can see below.
The fish below are all the ACTUAL fish I will be sending you and they are young fish. They will look just as big and sweet, as their original Grandparents did in another Month or so.
I will ALSO include some very high quality foods for these fish to keep them growing and really get that color popping on them too!
Shipping is 100% on ME and I guarantee live arrival of ALL AWESOME FISH!
