  • I'm new to this forum

    Howdy to all!!   My name is Jeff and I live near Victoria ( 'bout 100 miles or so from "most" of ya'll).  I'm not new to the  hobby, just new here.  I found this site on a link from the Hill Country Cichlid Club (proud member) and you guys have a great club/forum going.  Hope to get to meet some of ya'll soon.

    My "addiction" is 30 tanks and growing - currently filtering over 1000 gallons -  All malawi's.  I've been breeding ( well, not me, but my other fish ) for several years.  I sell most of fish locally and to one LFS.  I'm leaning toward thinning down from some of the more common malawi's and venturing into more difficult to find fish.  I know this ain't a "trading post" thread here, but if any of you are in my area, I've got in excess of 500 fish for sell - from fry to 3"+.  

    Glad to be here with ya'll - Toodles

      Nice to have you join us Jeff, being your so far out there, your sales may be fairly slow, but best wishes and keep in touch.

            Welcome to the box :)
            I would recommend you make a post in the trade area with at least a list of sizes, price etc...  Adding pictures helps A LOT

            This is a great place for information and more information :)

            Keep smiling :)

                        Also, be sure to check in, last summer a group of us took a trip to Coleto Creek for a day of collecting, and we want to go again! So we venture out your way every once in a while.  :)

                            Welcome to the forum. I am a newbie myself and I have to tell you. I have already met some awesome people. I would do as everyone suggested and post your fish with pictures in the fish market. If you do shipping you might get some sales out of it. Being that you are in Texas you can do UPS and anyone in the area should receive it the next day. This is what I call cheap next day air! :wink:
                            A house without a puffer is not a Home.
