Coming Soon - Old World Exotic order

[Marty]

I'll be posting a list in the next couple of days.  If I get enough interest, I'll place the order late this week with delivery around the 15th or 16th.

Damn missed it again.   Once again likely a good thing I was too late.   Besides deer firearm season opens on the 15th and all though fish is my fav. hobby...... hunting is my life!

[gmaschke]

No comments since the order.... was curious how it went.  Any commnets , what everyone get?

[Marty]

There were only a few people that ordered, and I was one of them.  I'm probably going to wait until spring to do another order unless I see an improvement in the list of available fish.  The last one just didn't have too much I was interested in.

[gmaschke]

I see.  Maybe by then I'll have clean out some fish and have room.

Hmm, I have been wondering, where do you order fish from when you organize these orders. Just curious. I have thought of ordering  to see the reliability of it. The place i was looking at was   bluegrassaquatics.com. Ever heard of it. 

[Marty]

Yep, their wild stock is likely coming from where we order ours from, with an additional markup.

So you have heard of bluegrass, from the research i have done, im thinking they would be a reliable source for fish online. One other question. What is the specific name of the fish food that you sell by the pound, i don't believe i ever got that from Rob. Thanks, Ski..

I had a neighbor while I was living in A2 that ordered a couple times from them. The first time he was really pleased, but the second and third time less so. I forget if it was a DOA or substitution problem he had with the service - this was a few years ago.

Old World is an importer that has been in the business for years and as Marty mentioned, you'll find wild stock from other companies has often passed through Old World and been marked up accordingly. Of course these companies won't tell you this - they are trying to make money! At times it may still be advantageous though to purchase through a reseller; essentially if you can't meet the minimum price/quantity required by Old World.

The stuff i got from Rob, is a multi-color flake food. Sorry, im not sure which it is. He did tell me it is what he feeds his fish.
The other thing, the Old World, you order from. Is that an online company as well?

Hey Jim,

What I picked up for you was the Tropical Flake Food. If you are needing more let me know. I have to run up to my sisters after the first of the year and I can bring you some. Just let me or Marty know what you need and I will pay Marty and you can pay me.

Maybe when Marty places another order in the spring we can work something out for another delivery to you if there is something you wanted to get?

Thank you Rob, I just wasn't positive which it was. Im pretty sure that would work out almost perfectly for me, How's things for you? Still breeding fish in large quantinties. All of those i got from you are doing great, I do have more tank space up here. Just in case you might have some more juvie's/fry available . I did have a question, a small group from you, i don't remember what they were, they were small tho, sort of a brown/grey blotch collor, with some great color in the dorsal fins. Blue's, and sort of orange...

[SKISWETPETS]

Oops, forgot to ask where your sister lives Rob. Is she in Hillman? 

[robmc13]

NO she is in Boyne Falls but I stay in Gaylord. I can always meet you a little closer to your place this time.
