?Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming ?Wow! What a Ride!? ~ Hunter S. Thompson

POSSIBLE scammer,the seller has 2 feedbacks,1 for some cheap plants.
And the other 1 for a Tigrinus catfish at $250,(purchased by a ZERO feedback buyer).
Both are recent sales,both ending on feb. 23rd.

That zero feedback    buyer might very well be the   seller with a different account.
What makes me think so,for one the feedback left  for the catfish was posted THE VERY NEXT DAY after the auction ENDED.

And second check out the sellers other auctions,ALL expensive fish,including saltwater.
So they went from selling cheap plants,and a couple weeks later have THOUSANDS of dollars worth of fish for sale,including 5 datnoids at $1,200 a pop.

Boy they sure grew their business fast.

BUSTED,their tigrinus catfish auction says the fish pictured is the actual fish for sale.
Here's the same picture used  on  Bluegrass Aquatics site,bluegrass is in florida,not georgia like the aquabid seller.

And this one,says he's selling 6 inch datnoids.
But the picture they use in their action is a SCREEN CAPTURE for a youtube video,of a 22 inch one,posted in 2013.

I contacted the seller asking if the group pictured were the fish that were for sale.
They said yes.
And that the SMALLEST one is 6'',and the largest was now 10''.

So it appears the largest one shrunk 12'' over the last 3  years.
