Hey folks,
well this is it, launch week is finally here! It's obvious that some of you have been reading the email pretty regularly as we already started receiving orders on the GloFish® Moonrise Pink® Cories this morning. These are going to be the hottest selling item we have had since the Angel launch. You have to see these in person to truly appreciate them. Color is outstanding under any lighting condition. Your customers are going to go nuts over these. Perfect timing as Black Friday is just around the corner.
In addition to the Cory launch we have plenty of great fish to stock up in time for the holiday season including a couple of new(ish) additions. The first is brand new to us, Redfin Daisy Ricefish. This a color variant of the Blue Daisy and I must say I am not disappointed. They've only been here a few hours and there are already plenty of males starting to show off. Aquarium strains of Ricefish have been all the rage overseas and it's just a matter of time before that trend really starts to pick up here. And as we all know nano tank enthusiasts are always on the lookout for something new. Speaking of nano fish our latest addition this week may not be exactly new but certainly one we've not had in a quite a long time, Indian Blue Badis. The Scarlets and Black Tigers are always fan favorites as they sell out every time we get them and these are sure to do the same. Only difference is these came in HUGE! And by huge I mean by Badis standards but these are more than twice the size of the other species that we typically get in. They arrived just hours before I started writing this so their color is a little faded in the pic but these settle in pretty quick and you can already tell they will be amazing looking.
The far east also brought us some long lost favorites, well maybe it hasn't been that long but sure feels like it. We'll start with what is quite possibly my favorite dwarf species of Gourami, the Samurai. These are cousins of the Chocolate Gourami but truth be told these seem to hold up much better under standard water conditions. We also got in Sumo Loaches for the first time in a hot minute as the kids say. These fantastic little bottom dwellers have a great splash of color to them once they settle in. And speaking of Loaches we got in one of the meanest yet prettiest members of the Loach family, Tiger Botias. These guys can be extremely territorial so be careful when mixing them with other bottom feeders.
While it may be freezing down here, at least by Florida standards anyway, we're still getting a ton of great locally raised fish. First and foremost have to be the medium German Blue Rams. These might be my favorite fish here this week. Size could be considered large for the guys and the color speaks for itself. You'll see what I'm talking about in the pic below. And speaking of large, Large assorted Gouramis have made a triumphant return. Not sure for how long so don't sleep on these. Size is great and so is the mix. Also running large this week are the Emerald Rainbows. And holy cow is the color on these exquisite. Super bright with fantastic fin extensions. And since we're talking about Rainbows Blehri are also back with a vengeance. Check out the pic below and you'll see what I mean.
Well for those of you who read this regularly you know what time it is, it's to talk Cichlids. And before anyone points it out yes I already mentioned the Rams but here I'm talking about bruisers and busters. And speaking of which let's start off with one of my favorites, Jaguars. Got restocked on these and while they are on the small side that doesn't stop them from being awesome. Even as little guys these will fly out of here so be sure to grab a few. And sticking with in the same realm we still have a select few of the Yellow Jackets left. No idea when we're going to be able to get more of these. Could be next week, could be next year. Either way don't wait to find out and pick some up before they're gone. Next up may not be nearly as bruiser or bustery but still very nice are the medium Green Severums. Now I know what you're thinking, that's such a common fish so why mention it here. Well I'll tell you...because they're awesome, that's why. In all seriousness these are very nice and I would definitely recommend them over the regulars.
