Howsie Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 Have seen these on a few pet/fish shop websites (HFF and wonderworld petshop). Are these Nannostomus Mortenthaleri or some sort of colour morph of a N. beckfordi or somthing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howsie Posted July 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 emailed HFF and was told they had N. Mortenthaleri but not sure about wonderworld. Anyone know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennisP Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 I've ordered some. I expect them to be the golden ones. I'll update on Wednesday when I get them. Or Thursday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howsie Posted July 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 Cool. I assume that's from wonderworld? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennisP Posted July 23, 2013 Report Share Posted July 23, 2013 No, pet Planet in Dunedin. But I'm assuming they're all essentially from the same source. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howsie Posted July 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2013 They told me they were $6.70 each Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennisP Posted July 23, 2013 Report Share Posted July 23, 2013 As far as I know, the coral reds are quite rare and are therefore more expensive. That is my reasoning as to why I'm expecting golden pencils labeled as red. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howsie Posted July 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2013 I think the ones at hff will be N mortenthaleri the coral red pencil and the ones at wonderworld and pet planet etc will be some possibly mature or just a particularly red bunch of N. beckfordi, gold pencil. I didn't think the price was too bad but they told me there was only like 4 left and shipping was almost as much as the fish so I wouldn't buy them. Also because I don't have much experience with pencils and didn't want to be the one who killed some of the only coral red pencils in nz. How much are the ones you are getting DennisP ?

DennisP Posted July 23, 2013 Report Share Posted July 23, 2013 Around the 7 dollar mark. I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Li@m Posted July 24, 2013 Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 From looking at pics online they definitely were the N. mortenthaleri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howsie Posted July 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 So DennisP did you get your pencils ok? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennisP Posted July 27, 2013 Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 I'm still waiting... My LFS is small and doesn't order every week from every supplier and this week they weren't on the list which was disappointing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
