Re: [GSAS-Member] Panda Corys

[HIRO TAK <neon98102@yahoo.com>]

  What do you have for me, Steve?  I was hoping that you can trade my Pandas to 
yours since I heard you were breeding them.  
    Yes, I believe I still have 6.  I think I'll trade 12 to Monica for another 
Corys.
  If you don't have Pandas to trade, I could always use some bigger wormy 
culture(grindal, white) since all I have is walter and vinegar at the moment.  
I know you have those most of the time.  I also looking wingless fruits fly 
culture for my hatchet fish.(I may end up order online.)  I also have surviving 
Daphnia on the balcony which I should seriously culture inside the house.  
    Or you prefer to trade with HARD COLD $.  Let me know and we'll make a deal.
   
  
 
  That sounds great, Hiro. I would six myself if there are enough to go around.
