If its real which i kinda doubt (looks like a wholesalers price list not available to the public) I'd take an achilles and a couple of tiger tail cucumbers

Sounds to ggod to be true though IMO.

Let me know whats going on.

I'm pretty sure the black tangs are found there, they might not be endemic but they are there now. No explanation for the scribbleds and helfrichs.

I just got off the phone with Alex in Hawaii...he will be getting to his emails tonight or tomorrow and will repsond back to those that have sent emails. These are good prices. I asked about the Black Tangs and he said they were very hard to come by and it is hit or mis, mostly miss, on filling that part of the order. However, the live stock that is around the Islands he easily can gather. The Black Tangs come from Christmas Island....I stand corrected on that matter.

So lets get this group buy going!!!!!!!
