WTB: Anthias

Looking to buy a group of anthias, Bartletts or Lyretails. Thanks!

If you have seen any at the LFS around town in Calgary, please let me know!

Thanks

I saw a group of one male and three female anthias in Pisces on Wednesday. They looked nice and healthy.

Hey Lee, thanks! Do you know what kind they were? Too bad pisces is super overpriced.... :(

Sorry, I'm not that familar with Anthias. Possibly Bartlett? I'm not sure though. They weren't priced yet.

I just called, looks like its valentris anthias and they want a whopping $600 per fish! hahahaha wow!

I'm pretty sure that was for the group of four. I thought he mentioned that when I was there on Wednesday. Not sure though.

Red coral had about 20 Bartletts in that were eating like piggys. Great price and all very healthy.

Just called and they dont have Bartletts, they have Truncate Anthias

Don't do the Lyre Tails... the males are gigantic a holes. I wish I never put them in my tank. The male killed all 5 females, and then 3 gobies and a wrasse.

You need to do some research before makeing comments like this.

If they are in fact Ventralis anthias thats a pretty good deal for all 4!

Its $600/fish making the group of 4 $2400 which is good deal? If it was all 4 that's pretty good it apears that its not a group.

http://www.aquacon.com/anthias_saltwaterfish.html $129/fish here

http://www.freshmarine.com/anthias.html $104 on here.

So what researh should he be doing?

hmm.. maybe you should read my post better since I said they are charging $600 PER fish. All my research indicates they sell for around $120 to $150.

When I posted that comment, I called and spoke to someone there, who quoted me $600/fish. Not as a group, I am taking the their (employee of pisces) word for it. Lee commented on a group in a response to me looking for Bartletts or Lyretails. Thanks

Actually for someone who contributed over 1500 posts, you sure didnt read my post right. I had just stated I called pisces to check on what kind of anthias they had in stock. Thanks for trolling
