Looking for wild sailfin mollies

[brewmaster15]

Hi all,
Im looking for wild sailfin mollies.(Poecilia latipinna). Seem to be pretty scarce or ridiculously expensive online. As these are common along the southern USA coastline as a native fish was wondering if any of our members may have access to them.

Drop me a pm if you can help.

Thanks

Al, send a PM to Ryan. He might have some idea. Aquabid may have something?

This may work out. I tracked down the seller on Amazon.. snailsbymail. He operates as an ecommerce business also under the name floridapets.com

Spoke with him on the phone and he confirmed for me that they are wild caught ..caught by him. This is exactly what I was looking for..

Al, if you ever want some white/black mollies I have seen them in my lake. These are not large mollies, about guppy size.
