    I'm interested. I'd be considering a 200 gram cube order. Please PM or email when ready.

    I wish I saw this thread before I placed my order a few days ago. When I placed the order on the site it took me to Paypal to make the payment but when I edited the address to a different one than my default one it took me back to the main site and said my order was placed....but I am sure no Paypal payment was put through. I emailed directly as suggested by another member here and asked them to contact me as I decided to double my order after seeing the shipping cost from AU. Never heard back until an auto-reply came yesterday saying my order was shipped. Not sure what was shipped in the end or how I am to pay. I'm confused. Surely would have waited to order from the US to save the large shipping cost.

    How much were you charged for shipping? I went through the order process on the site and they appeared to add a little less than $10 for US shipping. That does not sound like a bad deal to me given it's international shipping.

    No, it's not bad for international but seeing them available in the US now it's surely to be so much less to ship. I'd wish that if a USA distribution was so close to pending that the wholesale order had been shipped I would have been directed there instead. No biggie.

    If prices are comparable to Mals site and shipping costs and times can be reduced than a local US distributor is the way I'll be placing future orders.

    Can anyone tell me how long I can expect 200 grams of cubes to last for 6 discus if fed once or twice a day?

    Thanks!

    Someone told me before that there are 280 cubes in a 100 grams package.

    Received my free sample last week. My fish love em'. I will definitely be placing an order. I especially like the 66% protein value for growing out juvies.

    The first shipment for Al is on its way and should get there late this week or sometime next week. I am really very grateful that Al has agreed to market them there because it allows me to concentrate on growing, processing and packaging them and also looking after the other markets I supply.
    Cheers, Mal

    Exclamation Re: Australian Blackworms soon to be in USA and Canada....

    Hi all!

    Well I have gotten my first order in and should be able to fill your fishes Freeze Dried Blackworm Needs now...

    Here is the Deal.... I have set up an online store....As I have time I will dress it up a bit..its functional as it is. I will also add a direct link from the forum, next on my to do list.

    This online store is set up to accept only orders for the USA and Canada .. Sales tax is collected for CT only.(sorry fellow nutmeggers!) payments accepted at this time are paypal and prepaid checks/money orders. Paypal is immediate, the prepaid function is a consideration for those that don't want to use paypal...but I won't ship until payment clears.

    I plan on adding a credit card option as well as the credit card thru paypal thats currently set up, but I am still looking into the credit card gateways...talk about fees and mumbo jumbo...sheess...my head hurts

    Other International hobbyists.... I may be able to ship to you...contact me by pm here.. or by email at aquaticsuppliers@comcast.net and we'll see what we can do..

    Please let me know if you run into any issues with the shopping cart...I have gone over it all dozens of time and everything seems good to go..but I am sure I missed something...if theres an issue...please let me know and I will fix it immediately.

    Thanks everyone.

    -al


    Ps... My new online store is...
