Okay...so I tried to set up a pay pal account, but I clicked some button that will make me an extended user...whatever that means...so now I have to wait 3-5 days for some number to come on my statement. until then, I can't use paypal. Si I e-mailed him asking if I could just send him a personal check or cash...and guess what?! I can send him a personal check!! so it's going out in the mail tomarrow...cause the mail dude doesn't come on sundays:P so I should have my fishes by the end of the week!

fishbguy · 12-09-2007, 08:39 AM

btw...what is he?

He's not mine, but he's for sale at the lfs...and kinda cool

fishbguy · 12-11-2007, 07:24 PM

Somebody brought in a female pearl of likoma cichlid today at work, so I bought her...lol she's only about 1-1.5 inches long, and her colors are awesome.

Melanochromis exasperatus, or more comonly known as Melanochromis joanjohnsonae...she's in hiding, and still camera shy, so I"ll get better pics when she;s out more.

fishbguy · 12-13-2007, 10:07 AM

I still haven't gotten a reply about him getting the check yet, so I might be getting the fish alter than I thought. I'm gonna send him an e-mail when I get home from school to see if he got it yet....just my luck it gets lost in the mail.

**JustOneMore20** · 12-13-2007, 10:29 AM

Its only been 3 days since you sent it.

Maybe he'll get it today or maybe he just hasn't had time to email you yet.

Patience, my friend.

fishbguy · 12-18-2007, 10:10 AM

YAY!!! he called me yesterday, HE GOT THE CHECK!!

He's shipping out the fish today, so I should get them tomarrow. I'm calling the post office when I get home to have them hold the fish for me until my mom or I can go pick them up. They way they aren't sitting in the mail truck, or out on our front porch. And seeing as to how the temp. hasn't getten over 20 degrees in the past 4 days, not even heat packs will keep them warm...lol. I'll get picks up as soon as I can...I have to work tomarrow after school, but then I have off till jan. 3rd, so I"ll deffaintly have pics up on thursday.

fishbguy · 12-19-2007, 10:34 AM

todays the day!! I'm at school now, but I called home at 10:30, and they still hadn't arrived, so hopefully when I get home their be there. Unfortunantly, I have to work tonight, so I'll only be home for about an hour and a half today...

**Ichthius** · 12-19-2007, 10:59 AM

Awesome. Post lots of pics when you get them in

**JustOneMore20** · 12-19-2007, 12:02 PM

Awesome! Hopefully they make it there today. I'll be looking for pics too!

fishbguy · 12-19-2007, 12:46 PM

They're here!! I just dumped them in...I'll get picks up tomorrow!!

5 females, 2 males...he sent me an extra...lol

I put the stamp and the return address label on the wrong side of the envolope, so that's prolly why it took so long...lol

fishbguy · 12-19-2007, 01:17 PM

PICS!! the dark one is the male....

fishbguy · 12-19-2007, 01:17 PM

more.......

fishbguy · 12-22-2007, 07:38 AM

Okay...so on cichlid-forum.com, it says that P. saulosi are herbavorious fish......they weren't kidding. The other day, I put sopme italian val in their tank...it was free, so I wasn't worried if they would eat it or not. Anyway...yesterady, at around 10 in the morning, I put a piece of lettuce in the tank for them, thinkinging, maybe they'll eat it, but they prolly won't, but it won't hurt...boy was I wrong....about the eating it, not the hurting them...lol The piece of lettuce was about 5 inches long, and 3 inches wide, at 3:45, when I was leaving for work, I went up to check on them, and there were 3 little holes in the lettuce, so I thought yay! their eating it! when I got home at 10 that night, the lettuce was gone, completely gone, like it never existed, and my vals....they ate all the leaves half way down. They were more than 2 feet long, and they ate them from the top down, leaving no scraps. In 6 hours, my 8 fish(7 saulosis, and a joanjohnsonae)m all ranging from 1-2 inches in length, at more than 100 inches of italian val....hungry little buggers

**Ichthius** · 12-22-2007, 12:13 PM

Wow, they're so pretty! Congrats

shade2dope · 12-22-2007, 09:36 PM

very nice andrew when are you inviting me over to see them lol

fishbguy · 12-23-2007, 06:22 AM

Lmao ruben....soon....lol

their not that exciting yet...they mostly just hide, eat, poop, then eat some more...lol They haven't finished off the vals yet...but I've been feeding them prety well...lol They ate 2 poeces of cucumber yesterday on top of their flakes and a few black worms, so today I'm gonna try greenbeans...lol

fishbguy · 01-05-2008, 01:14 PM

I got a gold nugget pleco for christmas, so I finally got him home today. He's about 3 inches long, same size as most of the cichlids. His name is Bink, as in Bikini, like a yellow polka-dot bikini...lol I didn't name him, my unt did. She said that she would only get him for me if she got to name him...so she named him Bink...lol

fishbguy · 01-05-2008, 01:15 PM

sorry for the bad pics....he was hiding under a rock...I just dumped him in the tank, so he was hiding.

**JustOneMore20** · 01-05-2008, 01:38 PM

Aww....he's cute!

Glad you finally got him!
