RED yuma at a LFS

fishes2889 · Aug 20, 2007

Well, just sent out Vince's package and then went off to a local store. I saw the most :marv b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l :marv RED yuma i have ever seen, kinda like Marv's :marv , for $90. About 1.5 inches across, not fully expanded quite yet. (they got it in a couple days ago). Now i know that you shouldnt buy a yuma if its mouth is gapping open, it wasnt, but it isnt fully expanding quite yet. I put it on hold for Saturday, to see if i should pick it up.

Should i go for it? I have never bought a yuma more thank $25......

I say if it is expanding and the mouth is tight as well as all the pseudotentacles are full then heck yea.....

fishes2889 · Aug 20, 2007

I guess i will go for it, only if it is expanded though....

Sounds like a really good deal. I bit the bullet and got one some time ago and I love it.

fishes2889 · Aug 21, 2007

sure thing Vince, i cant wait to see it fully expanded & whatnot

thing is, everytime i go into this store i end up gettin' 1-3 frags.

Its the best store for frags i have ever been to.
