RE: [GSAS-Member] "Mr. P" needs a new home

["Monica H" <ninita@hotmail.com>]

I forwarded this to my friend (Lori) who might be interested.  She has 
several good sized tanks.  I had to laugh at your email though.  I have a 
14" pleco (Jeb), who sounds just like Mr. P.  Where did you get your altums? 
 I have been researching them for quite some time, and am hoping to get 
some this year.  I have been talking with an exporter/importer in Thailand 
but am not so sure I want to have them shipped from that far, even though 
they can overnight it.
