Sounds great Josh!  The L134's at the GCAS auction went for around $30 each for 2" fish.

they are all juvies 2-3"
Can't wait for the winemilleri to get big and bright. They will go well with my red head tapajos.

Well the almighty USPS lost my winemilleri package! They were shipped 3/25 overnight doing and have fail to leave the city if origin yet. Guaranteed by noon yesterday so I will get actual shipping costs reimbursed. Hopefully their investigation find something. And I receive them in good health.

Sorry to hear that Josh.  Hopefully they have been sitting in a nice warm Post Office and will still be OK when you get them.

Well the winemilleri all showed up dead! $ 50 shipping later the replacements finally showed up alive today though. L134's arrived safely the first trip.

one thing i hate is when the p.o. doesnt update the tracking so you have no idea where the fish are.

Call your local PO, and have them hold it for you.......that way it won't travel in their delivery truck...
It was shipped yesterday, and scheduled for delivery tomorrow....priority is two day....

Frank, they're not updating in a timely manner.....right now they seem to be updating after the fact....sheesh.....sent three boxes...one priority, it arrived the next day...one express, it arrived 12 hrs late and had to be picked up, or it would have been later.....one box to Tenn, priority that is on time and will be delivered tomorrow.......by the by, the priority box that got there over night was in New Jersey.....go figure....LOL

Dont trust usps scanning uodates on tracking. I had a express box from jon that didnt arrive at noon. So I made multiple trips to the post office. And I stopped at the main airport hub at 5pm 615 and 730pm every time they said it was in chicago. Finally at 1120pm I checked again and it said it arrived at 530pm. I drove down to the airport and picked it up. Dang usps

Both females are good to go..the male was in a separate tank.....give him a cave to get things going....he should get the hang of it quickly.... ;D

Both the winemilleri and the L134's are doing good!  They both took a little longer to acclimate than I'm use to which worried me a little bit. They have really settled in and colored up good now:))
