Just got a new batch of Labeo. trewavassae fry, and two more coming. Anyone interested in picking up in central Jersey area let me know. I'm asking $3 a fry (they are OB).

Hey there merlyn2221,

Where exactly in Jersey are you? I am interested in some Labeo. trewavassae.

Hi Scott!
If you look at a map of New Jersey, I am right next to where it says Lakewood.

I am about 3 1/2 hours south of you from the Waterbury Exit off Route 86 (I think that's it, right?). I have family in CT in Northfield, Morris, and Litchfield, but don't get up there often, unfortunately.

I have tons of OB trewavasaes (now ranging from an inch down to a quarter inch) and a few larger regular trewavasae juveniles available.

I do ship fish, and shipping to you in CT (through Airborne Express) would probably be anywhere between $20 and $35.

Check out my page on AquaBid to email me.

I am interested in some OB. Do you have any that are sexed?
I am looking for a 1 male to 2 femal ratio.

Yes, I have a trio available. They are about an inch. They go for $25.

Risky to ship them in the cold, however, even with styro and heat packs. Did you want them immediately?

I am not really in a rush for them. Could I pick them up? I go to Jersey every so often to see family. I would like a male and 2 females. $25.00 sounds good. Let me know.

Not a problem to pick them up. Let me know where your family is, and if it's not far, I may be able to meet you, saving you the full trip.

Just let me know.

How far are you from Princeton? I go down there often and drive up the parkway to 287 to get back to CT.

I'm about 45 minutes east of there off 195.

Hey merlyn I was woundering if you had gotten to wear you were shipping them yet I live in Montana and getting fish is sometimes dificult, I would be interested in a trio of labs if the price was right

Yes, I do ship any fish. I will not do so right now, though, due to the below freezing temps. Even on overnight shipments, which is all I do, the fish sit overnight in an unheated truck or warehouse. With this weather, no amount of heat packs keep the temp correct.
I will be shipping again the beginning of April, so let me know then if you would still like them. They are too small now (only about 3/4" for this batch) to ship anyway. Got plenty of them, so keep me posted. Also, look on Aquabid.com for my auctions, because I have tons of other fish at reasonable cost. Will make you a good deal. :)

Just in case anyone is interested in any of my fish, I will begin shipping again starting March 29 to all areas.

I have OB Labeo. trewavasae's, yellow labs, "blue zaire" labs (coming soon), and Aulon. stuartgranti "red shoulders" available.

Hey I was looking for a few crabro females I already have one male. Let me know about pricing and shipping to southern cali. I have 1 male already. Also how many you have. I am not sure how many I want at least 6 though.
