CichlidFish.com - Fish That Think.

Hey if you ever get in some wild Malawi africans. I maybe interested. I still need to finish off stocking my 30 gallon and I would like to add some wild fish in the mix.
Just send me a PM if you ever do. Now that I'm working enough I'll have the cash to do so.

The chance of finding any animal in the wild albino is about 1,000,000 to 1. They lack camaflauge and some grow slow, this makes it extremely easy for predators to kill. In the rare chance that they were really true albinos wild caught, I doubt anyone would sell them to you for $3. It being from Hawii my only guess is that someone released a large wild pair, in there and since their natural predators didn't eat them maybe they breed and maybe some survived. But I really doubt they are true wild caught.

you know what I find funny?

he listed places on and offline for you to verify information and you still argue,I don't think he has anything to do with fishbase and I've never seen him print a book in his house.

The worst part is he offered people fish basically at his cost!!!!! just to help get this section going and help people out and then come posts like he's selling fake? or false fish? If albino or these others are so hard to get or so expensive and he was trying to sell fish and be wrong or sell tank raised fish as wild wouldn't it of been easier to just list them as wild with no further details?

Then he even refered cichfreak to someone else? for what more arguments?

I myself seen this list of fish to pick out some stuff for me and it reads perfctly to to me as locally wid collected

I guess some people take everything people try to do for them for granted and now I see why he didn't post any offers for anything else he was going too and if it was me I wouldn't!

I think I'm about done here. It was real

I think I'm about done here. It was real

sheesh,you need to stop throwing a fit and stop worrying about it,theres no reason to get mad and not come here, over anything.


After we got done talking I thought about it and I see no reason to be mad - I tried to give people some help and hey it didn't work ,oh well life goes on but since people want to argue,and shoot down my thread even when I try to give 3 different sources to get the facts and people either don't check for themselves or decide they know better then printed facts I myself am done with this cl***ified section,I see NO point in the extra work involved in offering deals to people at basically no profit to myself only to have to defend my thread especially against people who refuse to read facts after I go through the work of finding crediable links to reverify the same information I post.

Comon Stilllearnin we love you here. I've been trying to save up some cash so I can buy from you and now you are pulling the plug. Just PM me what you got in stock, I won't disagree with you:D .
Most of the people on here love you man don't give up on us because of one bad response.

Just PM me what you got in stock, I won't disagree with you .

I will send you a PM when and if I get anymore big orders,actually check your PM's Junior

Feel free to disagree whenever you want I have no problem with anyone disagreeing , just don't ask for info and then disreguard the information and proof once it's given.


--------------------------------------------------------------------



and before I get another email - Yes, I deleted my posts,noone deleted any posts I made except me, I just seen no reason to leave a post for information to be ignored or further have a "sales" type add be part of a thread that even after other facts were proven the priceing was bashed by someone claiming to know how priceing works,seems strange though how many priceing experts you can meet online that'll turn around and ask you how and where to buy wholesale from.

Wonder how fast other people will decide to rush in and post offers or at cost deals to get the classifieds moving?

For those HONESTLY interested here is a list of fish now living in hawaii (some from OLD introductions) that can be caught living in wild situations.

ALthough I probally won't offer them again this may end up being helpful to some people later on if they ever see hawaiian fish offered again or those who may actually consider going there and collecting some while there.

**collectors also say there are also other fish also established that they don't have the right names for so I didn't list them**


This is a list put together from names faxed to me,listed as collectable fish by hawaii DAR and some listings by fish base.Since the names were directly copied some names may be outdated.
According to Hawaii DAR these species are belived to have been established since or prior to the early (19)70's and "Some of the earliest aquatic introductions occurred during the 1800's "

Supposedly some of the best places to catch these fish are in the Hanalei River,Secret small streams collectors don't want to disclose and their tributaries and Lake Wilson but it is currently partial shut down do to non-native plant infestation.

Lake Wilson is where they hold tournaments and have charters for red devils,peac0ck bas$ and oscars

Do you have any way to order pseudotropheus flavus, pseudotropheus polit, labidochromis sp. "Hongi Island", or Ngara Flametails? If so, can you get wild or F1? How much? Looking for these, primarily the flavus and hongi labs!!!! Thanks a bunch!
