land_lubber Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 I saw some in at HFF the other week. Maybe they still have some? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myfishybuisness Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 yeah these are the most expensive cory in nz at the moment retailing at $45 each when they are young Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antwan Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 They were $70 a pop when I saw them in Redwoods last summer so hopefully Simian can make these a lot more common (and cheap ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myfishybuisness Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 They were $70 a pop when I saw them in Redwoods last summer so hopefully Simian can make these a lot more common (and cheap ) he was selling them 45 for 3 when they were 8mm so they are cheap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neon Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 I saw some in at HFF the other week. Maybe they still have some? Which Hollywood? North Shore? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
land_lubber Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 I know I saw them at Mt Roskill a few weeks back but not sure about Albany. Give them a ring. I'm sure they were cheaper than $45ea as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simian Posted September 11, 2010 Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 he was selling them 45 for 3 when they were 8mm so they are cheap That's a perk of being a Waikato member, and a very limited deal, non members will only be able to get them from a shop (with the exception of a very select few breeders in other centres. Adolfoi are incredibly slow to grow 6 months+ to your standard fish shop size, and spawns are very small so I wouldn't expect to see them "cheap" outside of the odd Waikato club night special offer for a few years yet. I will get hold of Levon at HFF this weekend and if people you are serious about getting a group to grow out he will be able to help you out.

Mirio Posted October 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 Yeah, i would actually be somewhat interested. I almost prefer slow growing fish, watching them grow is rad. :B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueyes Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 Wow, what an awesome Cory... they would look awesome with theme I seem to have somehow decided on for my new tank..... my Clown Loaches and some Tiger Barbs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirio Posted October 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 Yeah, they're probabaly my favourite specie of Corydoras. Too bad they're not as common as some of the other breeds! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueyes Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 They are cool, and would look so cool with the other fish I am hoping to get for my new tank.... if you do manage to find some for a nice price let me know!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
