Where to get an albino longfin BN pleco?

[Mrs.h2012]

A member here suggested I check out the albino longfin BN pleco, and I did and I absolutely fell in love! So needless to say I want this fish so bad I can't stand it! Only downer is... There isn't any near me (I'm in the USA). Does anyone here know of a breeder I might could order one from and have it shipped or something?

Live Aquaria has them for a price... $40.

I'm not sure where you are but I have a petco by me that has them for $12. You might be able to find one tht has them or will order one for you.

Check out aquabid.com. There are lots for reasonable prices.

There's a petco about 45 minutes away from me... I'll check their site and see if they have one, I'll also check out aquabid, thanks everyone!

I searched aquabid this morning and didn't see any long finned albinos, they either had regular BN albinos or brown long finned. I think I searched for bristle so maybe there are some under BN or some other keyword. Good luck on your search!

I may like a brown longfinned.. I'll have to see what they look like.

They have them frequently at my lfs in VA, usually around 15$ I'd ask your lfs if they can be ordered!

I've got a pair but they haven't bred yet.

I got mine from Oddballfish.com. I also buy my rams and threadfin rainbowfish from them. They have very healty fish and ship all over the country.

I guess I'm just a little worried about ordering online because of them having to be shipped and them possibly not being alive by the time I get them. I've looked at a few sites and saw that most sites offer a live guarantee but you have to pay a pretty penny for the live arrival guarantee, and quite honestly I would rather put that much money towards equipment for my tank or for multiple fish vs just one.

I agree....I feel the same...

Sounds scary but the fish do just fine. Remember they were shipped to your pet store too
