We are slowly finishing up moving into our new, larger facility this week, with only a few tank casualties -- someone dropped a few! We should resume normal operations next week. I haven't had time to update the website, but we did get some really cool new stuff in. Here's an availability list.
The first number is an approximation of how many, total, are available, and the second is the price, per each (or as indicated).
Apisto. panduro, Adults 4 $60 Per Pair
Very nice! These are an unusual Apistogramma where the females are almost as beautiful as the males. Easy to breed and very hardy.
Apisto. nijsseni, QUAD (MFFF) 1 $125
Apisto. viejita "Rio Meta" 2 Trios $100 Per TRIO
Probably my favourite Apisto that I've got in stock right now. Gorgeous, very big, very beautiful!
Double Red agassizi 4 $15 each
Three males and one female available, all 4 for $45.
Apisto. macmasteri, Wild 25 $15 VERY NICE

Neat little bushy nose pleco. Tank raised by a local breeder!
Ancistrus sp. "Basic Bushy Nose" 25 $6 3 for $15
The basic aquarium bushy nose, brown, either locally bred (usually) or farm raised. These are the ideal algae eating pleco. If you're still buying regular ol' "plecos," Batfish will have words for you. The BNP gets to a maximum size of about 4", perfect for most tanks, breeds easily, looks cool and ... best of all ... it ... eats ... brown ... algae. The type most of us have in the aquarium. Great algae eaters.

Hara jerdoni (Stone Cat) FEW $5 3 for $12
Orange Banded Stone Cat (Akysis vespa) 60 $7 3 for $17
An unusual small stone catfish, these beautiful 'bumblebee cat' lookalikes are not particularly predatory or aggressive. They also seem to be a lot more bold, and should be visible in the aquarium.
Rainbowfish:
Signifer Rainbowfish (Pseudomugil signifer) FEW $10 3 for $20, MFF ONLY
Featherfin Rainbow (Iriatherina werneri) 24 $12

Cyprinids (Barbs, Danios, Rasboras, etc).
Dracula Danionella 50 $5 6 for $25, 12 for $45
Super unusual micro fish. These guys max out at about the same size as a baby swordtail. They're actually cyprinids, but the males apparently possess tiny teeth that they use to spar with one another, like walruses. I think Walrus Danio is a cooler name. Will eat finely ground flakes, microworms, and other small foods. Best in a species only tank. Please note, these guys are super tiny, and we are not going to count them precisely. Actual numbers received will be close to and probably higher than what you order.
Boraras Brigittae 100 $3, 10 for $25

Cambarellus “Vasquez†4 $12 3 for $30
We have been asking around trying to get a positive ID on these craws. They're not particularly big, don't seem to bother fish, and haven't destroyed our plants. Buy one and tell us what it is!
All Other Animals
Fire Newts 3 $6 Mostly aquatic newt. Bright red bellies. Will eat small fish.
Iberian Ribbed Newt 3 $30 3 for $75
Juveniles of this uncommon, very big, very cool newt. Mostly aquatic, very slow -- tends to leave fish alone.
COLLECTOR SPECIALS and LONELY HEARTS
These are extremely unusual fish, one of a kind fish, or fish that are ideal for dedicated breeders, as well as “Lonely Hearts.†Please only order these fish if you are willing and able to breed them, and/or have mates for these “lonely hearts.â€
Montezuma Swordtails 1M 3F $20
Guinacara sp. Undescribed, F1 1 Group $50 5 fishes, about 2"
Moenkhausia spp. Small school (about six fish) $80
These are an unknown species of Moenkhausia, that if I had to guess was M. simulata. They remind me a lot of congo tetras. There are five or six fish in the tank (hey, they're fast!). The entire group is available for $80 IF and only IF you are an experienced tetra breeder. This is a super cool fish that I want to see represented in the hobby.
Frontosa Three $50
Frontosa var "Burundi". Good size and colour, about 4"
Giant Marbled Achara Cat 1 $150
Super huge, at about 24". Will ONLY ship airport to airport or UPS overnight. Local pickup or delivery preferred. Please tell me what size tank you have for this beast.
Cichlasoma amazona 1 GROUP $100
Small group of Cichlasoma amazona, personal fish that I've had for about 3 years. Surely one of the most beautiful plain brown fish out there. Four individuals, mix of sizes, I think two pairs.
Cichlasoma sp. "La Palma" 1 GROUP $75
If you thought the last group of fish was cool, check out this group of plain brown cichlids. Very rare, possibly undescribed species of Cichlasoma. Three individuals, about 4". Look to be ALL MALE. That's right, you can have a non breeding group of this super rare cichlid, thereby ensuring that it stays rare!
Cichlasoma dimerus "Belle Union" 4 All 4 for $35
And continuing our theme of plain brown Acaras.... But this group contains males and females. Probably. Juveniles at about 2".
Hypsophrys nicaraguensis 1 PAIR $50
These are near fully grown adults, starting to colour, and my personal fish. They won't spawn for me, but they're definitely a male and a female, and compatible. You try it
