Hey guys, I figured this would be the best spot to ask this with so many great connections to Asia here. Im looking for a bunch of these awesome Blood Red Oscars. They've never been in Canada or the US before that I am aware of, but can be found over seas for pretty reasonable prices ($30-40 ea). Wondering if anyone would be interested in bringing some in? Ive got around 20 of them pre-sold if its a possibility......

Pics of them can be found here - http://www.cichlid-forum.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=176309

Cheers,

Rich

They have been around for a while and I bought a couple quite a while back at a lfs. No longer have them but I will see if I can find some pics. Actually "Joey" on here used to have one back in 2008.

There are also called "ruby red oscar", "super red oscar".

I would personally spend the extra and get them from somewhere far away. Problem with any selectively bred fish (especially Oscars) is they tend to get crappier along the line. I actually bought a few from a local fish store a few years back and they got bad HITH on a drip system... I would source some from Jeff Rapps http://www.tangledupincichlids.com Stellar guy and although he may not have them I bet you money he will know where to get them.
