I don't know, it's up to them. :) I can't be going out to long island though, you'd have to drop off any fish I'm bringing to the meet at my house. That's a lot of gas money, Morledzep and R1 would have to provide for you driving all that distance. I will bring them to the airport, put them on the plane, hold them for two days, and drop them off at the meet all for free....why? because I'm an idiot.:grinno::ROFL:
Just pm me if your still interested and we can work things out. Lilfat, let us know now if you can't do all that driving, I'm about 2 hours from long island+traffic.

lol...The meet is on the 26, I leave Thursday evening at Newark Airport. Another option may just be a "group" order. You two can split shipping and pick them up at LA international airport. (~15 minutes from John's place...)

It's a carpintis x cyanoguttatus. I posted a few more pics in the photo lounge last week...

Hey Lilfats & fishguy...

Well as much as I want it, I had time to think about it over night. If what I'm thinking what you have is a "Boulengerella Cuvieri" than they don't take to shipping very well. He looks just like the one I have and when I picked mine up at like 7-8" he was almost upside down just from driving 40 miles. It would be a waste if it dies in transship since you really don't see these to often. Most will say, "Oh they have those at my LFS", yes they probably do but the other variant that looks similar. I'm surprised no one locally has jumped on this from your previous post when you had it up 4-Sale? I even told a couple of people that is in NY about it? Guess they weren't interested, oh well.

Check out my post on the one I have..

You should post a picture in the photo lounge and ask for proper identification.

BTW - fishguy, thanks for the kind gesture on helping me out. Much appreciated.

where my cichla are
Lilfat,

how much do ya want for gas to LI? what are you driving and what kinda gas mileage does it get?

fish guy, if you could bring the fish (snooks)with you on the plane, and i'll pay extra for you to meet my son at the Metro Link Station so you could hand off the box to him if you don't fly into town too late? and yes, i'm willing to pay for the priveledge..
I really don't want them to have to stay in the shipping container for more than 24 hours..

I arrive in San Diego Thursday night(or early Friday-don't know the time change really), but do not travel to LA until 4am on Saturday. They'd be in the container for around 2 days. I can hook up a battery-powered pump or something along those lines to keep them alive and well.
Where's the metro-link station?
