Description

Up for auction is an unsexed group of six Bluefin Killifish - Lucania goodei. They are native to my area of Florida and are mostly F1 generation fish from wild caught adults. I keep mine in a permanent setup Florida biotope tank. The fish are juvenile to sub-adult size and range from 1-2" long. Males develop both the bright blue dorsal and anal fins and deep red on their caudle fins during the summer months. They're outgoing fish, not overly aggressive and besides minor flaring from the males, leave conspecifics and non-conspecific fish alone including their own fry. They're shoaling fish and like each other's company in the tank. They're perfect for keeping the mosquito populations down in container ponds and don't need a heater if kept indoors. I've kept them in every size tank from five gallons and up. I feed my fish a varied diet including fresh, frozen, flake and freeze-dried depending on what's available to me. They should readily accept most things and I haven't found them to be picky eaters at all. They can stand temperatures from the upper 50's f. to the low 90's f.. These killies condition well for breeding when fed supplemental grindal worm and daphnia. My pH is generally around 8.2 when I test and runs between 400-440 ppm TDS (hard water). They do just fine in softer, more acidic waters too. As these fish are sub-adults, I cannot guarantee their sex. I'm selling them as a group in the hopes that the auction winner will get at least a statistically good chance at ONE pair of male/female. They're egg scatterers and prefer floating plants and their roots for spawning. A tank with najas grass, duckweed, salvinia, azolla and/or Amazon frogbit floating on the surface will help ensure breeding success. Winner gets the fish shipped to them anywhere in the continental USA via USPS 2-3 day priority mail. Whatever the current price is for a medium sized USPS 2-3 day priority mail box will be added to the final auction price. I use breather bags and include an ice pack this time of year. Because Covid-19 has shipping and logistics all screwed up, here's what I can offer as far as a guarantee: I guarantee that if you have DOA fish and send me a photo of the dead fish still in the breather bags within one hour of the delivery time/date, i'll replace them at no charge. This doesn't include the shipping costs, just the replacement of the fish. In other words, if your fish died and you're willing to pay the shipping again I will re-ship a new live set of fish to you and not charge you for the actual fish, just the postage. I accept money orders and cashiers checks through US mail, paypal and visa/mastercard payments through paypal. You do not need a paypal account to process a visa/mastercard transaction through Paypal. Paypal charges a 3% transaction fee for it's service which will be added to your invoice's final total. If you wish to save money on this fee and use a money order/cashier's check, just contact me after you win and I can provide you with my snail mail address. Good luck and happy bidding.
