Large vacation sale in North Texas with delivery between here and Florida!!!!!!!!!!!!

[John_Nicholson]

Ok folks I am leaving for a Florida vacation a week from Friday. We have some family friends that will be house/fish/dogs/horse sitting for us but I want to make their life as easy as possible. Since the price is so cheap and the time so short I am not offering shipping for this sale. Driving to the airport would cost me more than I make from the sell...LOL. Anyway my normally low price of $10 per inch is cut in half. Yep $5 per inch. The fish are PB's and brilliants all between 2 and 4 inches. I only take vacation about every two years so don't miss out on this opportunity. I normally take I-20 to I-49 , to I-10. If you live close I can deliver but remember this is my vacation so you are going to have to make it easy on my family who just want to get to the beach. Minimum sale is 6 fish. I don't have any good pictures the PB's look yellow right now but will have a base color of dark orange or red depending on what you feed with white striations/markings. The brilliants are currently just brown fish that will turn a beautiful blue striated when grown.

I'm also only 1,700 miles away in philly, so no need to ship them, I'm happy to have you just drop them off! ;)

Too bad you're not coming down the west coast on 75, I'd buy a six pack. Of Discus, of course!

I am taking the fastest route to Sarasota. Looks like I will be on 75 for a while.

-john

[Woodduck]

What size of Brilliant's do you have available. I live 40 miles from Sarasota.

[Woodduck]

My family has bungalos on Siesta Key.

[John_Nicholson]

Ask me again next week. I have several past customers coming by this week. I should not run out but will not know my exact stock until then.

Thanks.

-john

[Woodduck]

Sorry, just saw this. Yah, I'll check back with you. I could meet you the moment you arrive in Sarasota so you don't have to mess with them.

[John_Nicholson]

Thanks Bob. I have several people lined up to come get fish but will let you know what I have left next week.

-john

[ClayT101]

I sent you a pm as well. Will the pigeon bloods be red with with spots?
Clay

[John_Nicholson]

Clay they will be a dark orange to red depending on what you fed them. The will have white mark/striations. I only 6 left of the PB's and most of them have at least a little fin damage. Nothing major and it should heal up fine. I currently have plenty of Brilliants left.

Thanks

John, I won't be able to make this road trip delivery happen as I just blew my Discus Dollars on Kenny. Hope that doesn't mess you up.
It's been raining a lot down here, I bet it clears up for your stay. Enjoy, you picked a great spot to land in FL.

[John_Nicholson]

No problem buddy.

-john

[sdrexler078]

I'd get some if I hadn't just lost my job and have a kid on the way. But good news is I'll be moving to Dallas next year so I'll be alittle closer than Shreveport.

[John_Nicholson]

Sorry for the bad luck but it will be great having you closer.

-john

[tonysdiscus]

[John_Nicholson]

Not any good ones...LOL. I do not color feed or hormone my fish so at this size they are basically brown fish with just a few striations starting to show.

-john

[John_Nicholson]

It did dawn on me that there is a picture of the male in the NADA 2014 pictures. He won the bred by exhibitor class. The picture was taken with a bright flash. They make a really nice blue fish.

-john

[Altum Nut]

I hope you don't mind John but here is your male...

...Ralph

[John_Nicholson]

Thanks Ralph.


Here is a picture showing his shape a little better.
