Description

These are wild caught least killish (Heterandia formosa). I collect the fish from New Orleans watersheds, either Bayou Saint John, City Park, or Audubon Park, depending on the week. I include a balanced male to female ratio. Least killifish are live bearers (the world's smallest live-bearing freshwater fish). They can store sperm and females are often incubating young. It's likely that one or more of the females that I send you will be gravid (carrying developing embryos). She won't be conspicuously gravid because I've found that while near-to-term females can make it through the mail, they have a higher death rate than females who are further from giving birth. I ship Monday or Tuesday following the order so that the fish arrive within 2 or 3 days after drop-off at the post office. Post-collection, I tank the fish for a minimum of 3 days to make sure that they're healthy and energetic. These fish are inspected for fungus, torn fins and other maladies but know that fungus occurs in their environment and could be dormant. An outbreak would only occur under extreme stress. I do recommend quarantining your shipment. I condition the water, bag with breathable industrial fish bags, topping off the air supply with a spurt of compressed oxygen. I keep them in freshwater. Their bags will have Stress Coat. I double bag. Fish will be bagged, boxed and transported to the post office same-day. Heat packs upon request. These wild fish do fairly well at low temps but if you live in an especially cold region we will want to include a pacl. If you have any questions or special requests please feel free to message and if you win auction and want to tell me something in a note, please do. Shipping is USPS priority and will cost approx. 14-$30.
