For Sale or trade: Proven Pair of Angelfish ... PU/Shipping (28409)

[tropics007]

I started with a group of 10 angelfish at dime size 7-8 months ago. They have matured nicely, and I ended up with 2 pairs.

I plan on keeping one pair for myself, but I need to find the other pair a new home.

Asking price is only $55.00 for this proven parent raising pair or open to trades for other fish. ( NO guppies, or endlers).

TRADES ARE OPEN TO LOCALS ONLY!

They are around 10-11 months old, and are absolutely breathtaking. They have silvery/white bodies, & both angelfish do show some blue shimmer on the gill plate, and throughout the fins. This blue coloration increases prior to & after spawning, and is gorgeous in natural sunlight.

They do PARENT RAISE!

Pictures show the pair tending to a large amount of wigglers.

Body Size: Dollar+
Fertilization Rate: 85%+
Spawn Size: 300-500+
Parent Raise: Yes ( up to 1 week free swimming)
Spawn: Every 7-10 days
Diet: Micro Sinking Pellets, Freeze- dried bloodworms, brine shrimp
Tank Temperature & Ph: 80 degrees, and 7.0

This pair will REQUIRE a tank to themselves!

Local pickup is available in Wilmington, NC 28409.

SHIPPING

Shipping is also available, but it will be expensive due to their size.
Shipping box size will be 16x16x15.

I will NOT ship the angelfish into a flat rate, or regional rate boxes so please do not ask. They are adult fish, and need the proper amount of room during transit.

Usps Priority Mail @ $12.00-$20.00+
Fedex Ground @ $12.00-$25.00+
Usps Express Mail @ $35.00-$55.00+

PACKING

Each angelfish will be shipped in a 8.5"x18" 2mil poly shipping bag ( doubled bagged) with oxygen.

A small sedative will be added to each shipping bag. This sedative ( Bag Buddies) will allow the angelfish to have a less stressful trip to their new home.

Due to the current warm weather, insulated boxes or heatpacks are NOT available.

Paypal is accepted.

Serious members only please. I can send a pre-spawning, and spawning video by request.

I do not feel comfortable shipping angelfish of their size, so therefore I will NOT offer a live arrival guarantee if shipping is required.

While I do love mollies, I am mainly interested in trading for large more aggressive species of fish, or catfish. ( Malawi Cichlids, African Cichlids, Rahpael Catfish, Red Tail Catfish, Etc.) May also consider trades for blue, & orange crayfish.

Do they breed true?

Do they breed true?

From what I know is that the parents of the angelfish pair are german blue blusher x paraiba, and I honestly do not know their genetic history/background.

The fry are only around 3 weeks free swimming ( still very tiny, and slightly under pea size). As of now all the baby angels look bright white, but I will not be able to tell their true coloration, etc. until they reach between dime-nickel in size.

The angelfish pair spawned again this afternoon. Currently, I will not be able to sell the adults until the babies become free swimming.

 

[tropics007]

The fry should be free swimming in 1-2 days, so the pair will be ready to go to a new home by Wednesday morning.

In order to pay some bills, I now am forced to sell my main breeding pair of angelfish. This pair has spawned several times, and have a 85%+ fertilization rate. These angels are LARGE, and are also parent raisers. I also believe the male from this pair is pearlscale.

Asking price for this pair is $60.00 FIRM!

It is easier for me to upload a collage of pictures, instead of 10+ seperate photos. By request, I can send individual pictures of the pair via email.

If any member is interested in getting both pairs, I can ship all 4 angelfish in the same shipping box.
