Hi,
Is anyone in the states selling pairs of Baenschi or Borelli?,I'm located in california.

Hi - Wetspot (Portland OR) currently has Baenschi available. I have bought fish from them in the past and been satisfied. I'd like to order a few thing from them. I'm in Larkspur (Marin). Are you interested in sharing an order and splitting shipping costs?
Thanks, Richard

Richard,
Ill think about it and get back to you at the end of the week. What were you thinking about ordering from them? I was looking at a 3-4 elizebethae or baenschi, maybe mendezi. I live in San Ramon (contra costa county), so you're about 45 minutes away I believe.

Nathan,

I'd like to get a group of Apistos (either Apistogramma agassizi "Tefe Pearl Blue", Apistogramma baenschi "Inka" or bitaeniata), some Barred Pencilfish and some other odds and ends.
Let me know if you're interested. I usually have fish shipped to a friend in Berkeley who works from home and is home all day. Shipping to their zip code is usually a couple dollars cheaper than shipping to my zip code.
That (Berkeley)might work well as it's half way between us.

I ordered the tefe pearl blues and they're gorgeous I was thinking about the elizabethaes too but they say they're hard to sex They were accurate on the tefes though ended up with a pair and a trio

Thanks for the photo. That does look like a nice fish. I think that's my choice.

Nathan - Let me know soon if you want to go in. I want to order before they are gone.
Thanks

My LFS has Tefe Pearl Blues, 16-19 dollars each but I don't think they have pairs. Probably form wet spot. Neptune Aquatics is their name. Look just like the picture.

I ended up getting mine for 15.75
