What types do we have to choose from and what farms as well?
I mean is the no shipping out of BC during winter still in effect?
I'm guessing it takes another couple weeks to get the order made. That takes us to mid February. Then say 6 weeks to process. That takes us to beginning of
April. Sounds like spring to me!
Meanwhile it is 32 degrees where I am!
Cirrus I remember you talking a while back about sourcing some arowana for $1000 or less for super reds?
What I have learned so far is that in order to increase yields, SR's are crossed with Banjars; more fish are produced allowing for a lower cost, but teh % that go on to become true SR's drops way down. That is why a premium is paid for Indoreds that are old enough to have confirmed characteristics of true SR's. There is a lot more I can not go into right now.
I could arrange a sale of cheap "SR's", but the last thing I want is to gamble and end up having a lot of people pissed off in two years time when their fish do not develop. Right now everyone who has bought a Panda since 2005 is happy (over 100 fish imported). I can't say the same for everyone who has brought in the cheap "SR's".
Do not worry Eken. If you really love top quality fish and at reasonable price, you have me as your close friend. So you will always have them. I am not teasing you at all.
Good info to keep in mind. But I hate how the info is in "teaser" style .
We need a whole article my man.
