He only wants quarters at a buck a piece.  I have quarters now.  They are unturned HB's and I'm sure that many more will turn given time, but I don't have the tank space since I have more coming on, so a buck a piece sounds good to me.  I have 300 easy, and I tend to way underestimate.

I called him Monday morning and the lady I spoke to said that he'd already left for the day, that he was having dialysis that morning(poor guy, I had no idea).  Their hours are from 8 to 2 monday thru Thursday.  Tuesday and today I couldn't take time to call him because of work)  I never hope for a slow day at work, and tomorrow is almost booked, but I need to talk to this guy.  If he's not interested I want to know now so I don't have to save the as yet unturned multitudes for him for nothing.
Always move forward. Never look back.

Sounds good to me....if not, throw a lot of say 10 +2/$20 +shipping, on Aquabid.....sell a bunch off that way.......flat rate box for $15, and change....... ;D...toss a couple 'turned' in to sweeten the deal...post a pic of them mixed and simply state what it is....some turned, some not, but might??
It's true, and would be worth the gamble on the others...some of which most likely will turn...??

some folks will grab em for sure............win/win....

if you decide to give em away....I wouldn't mind a batch from a different pair to check out

Why not....maybe the dark side will do me good??... ;D...if I end up doing a cross, I'll use a non-expressing mate....besides, I'm not crossing HB in to anything else.....it won't spread...he he

I'm not going to do the Aquabid thing, either.  It takes too long and I need the tank space NOW.  Besides, out of respect for myself I can only sell my best.  I know selling to the wholesaler is still selling, but it's different.  It's getting money for fish that would otherwise go down the toilet.
