Nothobranchius Rachovii AND buying

[fishmonkey]

Okay guys, so i have been trying to get one of these ever since i first saw a picture of it in a magazine. but the problem is that i would like to buy the FISH not the EGGS because wouldnt that leave me with a bit more than i could handle? I have looked EVERYWHERE but I cant find them. can someone give me a reliable website that sells the live fish? It would save me a lot of trouble.

Thanks,
your fellow aquarist.

I don't have a site reccomendation, but you may want to post the same thread in another forum too, like classifieds or general retailers, and see what you get.

The only place I have seen them even on the web is aquabid.com. Perhaps you could contact the seller of the eggs and find out how much to purchase some juveniles? It couldn't hurt to ask...they may also be willing to hatch some out for you by special request...you never know until you try.

They are easy to raise from eggs, and you will have them longer, since they are short lived. They should last about 2 years in a well cared for tank.
