Description

Up for auction are 12 Xiphophorus xiphidium, also known as the Spike Tail Platy. The collection location is Rio Purification.

This is a mixed age auction to give you a breeding colony now and for the future. You will get the following fish:

1 adult breeding pair (one adult male and one adult female)

4 juvenile fish that are very close to sexing out (probably within a few weeks, in fact if they do sex out before the auction ends I will try to include 2 male and two female)

6 young fry about three weeks old, but big enough not to get eaten by the adults.

That's a total of 12 fish that form an instant colony. The pictures below are of some adult breeders from the same colony your fish will come from.

Shipping is FREE and I guarantee that they will arrive alive, because you deserve to get what you pay for. I ship on Mondays, Tuesdays and very occasionally Wednesdays. I use Priority Mail with styrofoam, breather bags and heat packs. I you live real close and ground is one day, I will likely ship that way to get them to you faster.

I will send a couple extras to fill up the box since more water means more stable temps in the box and this time of year that is very important.

I do not ship internationally. I have shipped to Hawaii, but buyer will have to provide all the necessary paperwork/import permits/etc. Please contact me before bidding from HI as buyer will pay actual cost to ship to HI.

If payment is received before the Monday following the close of auction, your fish will be shipping that Monday or Tuesday unless you tell me otherwise.

These fish are not difficult to care for. Mine live in Maryland tap water (pH 7.2ish) and are fed a variety of live and dry foods. Temps are seasonal and range from 70 to 80 throughout the year. All my fish are born and raised in my tanks. I do not import my fish for re-sale.

I prefer Paypal (credit cards ok) but I will accept money orders as well. I will email you my paypal address after the auction.

Thank you for viewing my auction, I will do everything in my power to make sure its a good one for you and me
