looking forTropheus Ilangi or similar
« on: April 09, 2014, 07:01:30 PM »
I would like to get a small colony of 20 juveniles.  I thought I would have no problems getting them from a breeder but they have non holding at the moment so looking around.   Only want to pay around $160. Because that's what I would be paying from the breeder.  I will pick them up.   I may end up waiting but I figured I would just toss this out and see if anything interesting was available.  Its been a year already freeing up tank space for them.

I doubt he is going to fine a group of 20 Illangi for $160.

Tropheus illangi juveniles typically run $12-15 each, so as Jon said, you're not likely to have any luck.

I may pay a bit more but the oyers were selling 10 for $80. Last year when I spoke to them.   Just called them and they have non holding at the moment.
