Has anybody ordered fish from SomethingsFishy.com? I haven't ordered from them and I'm wondering if anyone has experience with their livestock.

Not a good idea!!! You get what you pay for and cheap prices can equal total frustration and disappointment...

Thanks Jeep. I sent a reply once before to you in the newbie section - I see you have a boxer, at least it looks like an egg-head boxer pup. We're on our third boxer.Quote:

Just read through (most of) the posts at the link you sent, Brian. OMG, so glad I didn't pull the trigger on my order. I am planning to go see Dennis Velkov end of next month. My tanks will be cycled and he's only about 2 hours away. Seems worth the drive.
Now if I could find a good source for Angelfish...
Thanks much, Ken
He's every bit one handsome boxer - I see no traits of Mastiff. Our first boxer was a brindle.
Looks like, if that's your car in the pic, we have another thing in common - we're both Vietnam vets.
If so, Welcome Home and Thanks. If not send that message to the car owner.
Thank Ken, but I missed Vietnam by about 10 years. That was my uncle's truck that my aunt gave to me after he passed away. He began his naval service in 1961 and served 4 tours in Nam. The truck isn't worth much, but out of respect for him I'm slowly restoring it the way he always wanted it. He was my hero!!
You have a good heart, Brian.
Thanks Liz, but Jack worked his way in. I was a temp home and really didn't want him because I have cats. Once I saw how he loved the cats, he was going nowhere, lol... 110lb dog thought he was a chihuahua...
Hey Brian, I know what you mean. Between me and wife and our son and daughter we have 6 rescues. Funny you mentioned Chihuahua Liz, our Boxer Ellie's best friend is our rescue Chihuahua, Stella.
Back to fish stuff...
Before I order, here’s a question:
Have you ever heard of customers that need fish shipped and can’t go yo a seller's location, being able to go with the person picking the fish via FaceTime or other video calling service? Then let’s say I wanted a Red Melon with a very white face I could actually pick out the fish with the picker as he/she goes. I'm thinkin' this is not far-fetched (keeping with dog theme) and would ease a lot of pain and dissatisfied customers for sellers.
It may be a strange request, but I need about 10 fish for my new 100G and I want what I want.
Please, your thoughts?
Hi Ken, it will depend on the vendor. I have done videos over FB messenger so that might be an option.Quote:

No blushing, clouded or browns
Here's my 2 year old buddy Julius, he's a marble koi, but you can see all the blue hilites he has. Eats out o my hand. Attachment 125367
He's a very nice fish. I before I sold off my Angels I had lots of Platinum pearls but they were standard fin. I know a lot of angelfish people but none are breeding what you are looking for. Have you poked around Aquabid? There are a lot of serious hobbyist selling there. If you don't see what you want today you might tomorrow. Always read the feedback before you buy anything there.
