Hi,
I recently asked city farmers in Balcatta to check if they can order some fish in for me some of which included the zebra pleco they told me their supplier had some or could get them for about $300-$400 thought you guys might want some.

Hey vishy101,

I'll take 15 of them. Can give you a deposit and will fly to Perth to pick them up.

Cheers,
Clint

I think perhaps you should ring City Farmers in Balcatta to place your orders.

[mrseby]

I think maybe the threed should have read
(ZEBRA DANIOS $3-$4 EACH )

lLOL

Hrm i wonder if they really are the real deal?

[vishy101]

Hey,
Are u all serious or just joking because it wasn't a definite price but i can check up on it. Sorry if i sound like an idiot.

[Anita ozfish]

I am mega serious but I don't think your supplier is - that is waaayyy too cheap for zebs but I never knock back a bargain
I will also vouch for the authenticity of the Melbourne crew
Let us know what the bottomn line is as soon as you know.

City Farmers ph 0892401188, just back from the Erkindale rd
intersection, just before Mumford Pl or if you are coming from the other way just before Endsten Pl , BT eat your heart out

i may be wrong but its worth checking.
when retailers get in fish it is usually for 1/3 to 1/2 the retail price.

which means that because city farmers can get them for 300-400 dollars means that they will probably sell them for either 600-800 dollars or 900-1200 dollars each. and unfortunately it seems this way as city farmers said THEY can get them for 3-4 hundred, saying nothing about how much they will sell them for. so this price probably isn't accurate.

though it might be worth me getting an ABN for
"Elliot's tropical fish" and getting them wholesale. lol

Hey Vishi


If this is a goer, please put me down for 10. I can lodge a deposit direct to City Farmers account if you can vouch for them or to your account if the best way to cement the price is for one large order to be placed by you. Whatever way it goes, I can pay the balance the same way before shipment.

Many thanks on behalf of myself and all interested respondents for the opportunity.

City Farmers dont know which end of a dog to feed let alone what a zebra pleco is
Seen Platydoras costatus called zebras in the past, but Hypancistrus is a different story

I hope for everyones sake its true, but i wouldnt get your hopes up.

Everyone,

I just now (9.15 Perth time) spoke to Kyle at City Farmers to get the latest. He expects an answer from his supplier today and will phone me and I will Post his reply. To quote "I had an enquiry from a young bloke (obviously Vishy101) last week and I made a few enquiries of my supplier and she thinks she can get them. Don't know price or quantity yet because it depends on the breeder and clutch size but she is supposed to let me know today and I will call you." Keep those fingers crossed!!!! We may yet owe Vishy101 a big debt of gratitude.

I hope u guys are correct!!!

But i doubt that city farmers will have or can get these fish
if they are avail it would be others who would sell them first b4 city farmers

don't want to burst bubbles and i hope im wrong ..but sound
like another WILD BT CHASE to me !!!

[Boots n all]

Mrseby, Dont be so negitive, BT might just be sticking it to all of us and be selling his fish to City Farmers

[Bristly]

Good call, BootsNall
