Pre Quarantined fish

islander84 · Jun 27, 2018

Is there anywhere that sells pre-quarantined fish? Or anyone who provides that service?

Not yet, I just looked but given his excellent reputation I wouldn't hesitate to purchase from him.

Is there an estimate as to when it'll be open for business?

I tagged him in the post. We'll see if he chimes in

He's in the early stages of the business right now but I expect his site will be up soon. I was lucky enough to get a beautiful C. isoscoles and P. mccoskeri recently from him and they are thriving from the get go.

Much of his present stock is already spoken for but he has another order coming in soon.

is it pre order thing?

saltyhog · Jun 27, 2018

He will have fully quarantined fish in stock but he also will take special orders (he's looking for a lineatus for me right now). Once his web site is up and running you will able to see what's available.

He may also list what's in QT and when it will be available (although this could be fluid depending on whether the fish has a disease or isn't eating well).

Following as well. Curious as to prices and if they’ll be a guarantee/warranty

I think Pieces of the Ocean also does some sort of QT, not entirely sure how extensive it is but they do offer it.

liveaquaria.com from Divers Den has the best QT process for buying fish online at this time, that I know of. I have bought a few fish from DD and no problems. I also do a quick QT dip before placing in tank.

I've seen a lot of posts about DD and Live Aquaria, they seem to be very popular. But I'd say from posts here that it's a total gamble as to whether or not you'll get a sick fish in the mail. In fact, it seems to be more 'when' and not 'if'.

I'd gladly pay a couple of extra bucks to get livestock from the guy who is present in almost every fish treatment thread on this site.

I agree with you but DD is the best bet at the moment. I have 3 fish coming tomorrow from them. I’ll do a 2 part quick QT dip 45min each then into my tank.
