Re:"Nigerian Redface"

[Mike Jacobs <mfjacobs@geocities.com>]

Folks.......I've got a real "nigerian Redface".........I'm so angry I
could spit.  A shop in town called me knowing I look for apisto's and
said I better get down there.  I literally flew only to find the
following:   10 "Huser RED Aggies"  and 5 "double-red" aggies........ALL
MALES.......and in talking with the guy who picked them out at the
wholesaler.....there were no females at the wholesalers either.  AND
WORSE than that....they wanted $29.00 for EACH "Huser Red"......now I
have to tell you....they are stunning.....the Huser(watch my
spelling....might be Huer)... have SOLID red dorsal, caudal and
ventrals....a VERY dark body with blue speckled face......$29.00 each
with no females.  Guys........question:  breeding with normal reds to
produce what.....what could I expect......IF A STUPID PERSON WOULD SPEND
THAT KIND OF MONEY FOR SUCH A FISH???????....WITH NO FEMALES.  I'm not
sure if I'm more angry at the wholesaler for offering them or the dealer
ofr buying them from the wholesaler!!!!

OPINIONS?
