    Default Rare Plecos

    I am planning to order some fish from Saul in California. Currently he has L173, 174, 260, 262, 399, 400, and many others. Both juvies and adults. I'm not sure if this is allowed, but his website is Zebra Pleco Zebra Plecos for Sale
    Mods please edit if there is a problem. I'd like to get the 174, 260 and 262.

    Where can we find pricing?

    We got some pleco nuts here, so I am sure a Group Buy will attract some of them

    The info you would need to provide would be pricing of the fish, shipping cost, how to split shipping cost, how to deal with DoA etc.

    Good Luck.

    IMO the best way to source those plecos would be to ask Charles from Canadian Aquatics to bring them in. Thats how I got my L 173's and L 46's and I don't have to worry about the health of the fish, the size of the fish or customs. Just go over and pick and pay when Charle's says that they are in

    Saul posts on a lot of forums. He definitely can get rare fish, but the reviews seem to be mixed. I'm with Joseph on this one. I like to see what I'm getting before I buy. And Charles can get pretty much anything you want, no hassles, quality guaranteed.

    Thanks for the heads up. How would I search the feed back for Saul. I'm a newbie here and I have only seen positive feedback and haven't been able to see any negatives, but not sure where to look. Please PM for privacy.

    Yes we did. I wanted Charles to bring in L134, but he did not have any available, and Rich had some he's had for months, and Charles advised to get from Rich. It ended up being a Group Buy as a few others wanted in. Since we were shipping, I also picked up an L114 and some L47's which were all in great shape. Rich is a great seller, but I am one of those who believe "A bird in the hand". Of course YMMV and you have to do what works for you. Rich is the first time I have ever mail ordered fish.
