Tim, how much for:

Skarlet Cleaner Shrimps
Skarlet Hermit Crabs ( Paguristes cadenati )

Thanks.

[Tim Marvin]

The cleaners are $13.50 and they don't have the hermits.

[Jenn]

Tim, what date are you putting in the order and how do you feel about a blue tank making it through shipping from this place?

Jenn

[sholzrichter]

Is the Skarlet Cleaner Shrimp also known as Fire Shrimp?

[Tim Marvin]

Jenn, this guy is top notch! It has been much better than I expect when I order from him. I don't forsee any problems. The last order had 100% survival and the gorgonians were like 15 inch tall, not the tiny ones.

Sholrichter, no the scarlet cleaner is the cleaner shrimp that will clean your fish. Fire shrimp are also known as blood shrimp.

[OrionN]

Everything listed will be a per item price. ........
bright purple long tentacle anemone $3.75
Tim,
I guess these are not hosting anemone, is it?
Minh

[Jenn]

Tim, how much time do we have until you order?

[MikeP]

Tim - I would like to get:

2x Purple Gorgonian 13.25 ea
1x Saddleback Blenny
2x Plant, Halimeda

Let me know if he blenny and halimeda are available. Also is this the same place I tried to get plants from last time that never could get them in (I think they were udotea andshaving brush).

[sholzrichter]

Do they have fire shrimp?

[Tim Marvin]

Minh, I had 25 of these in one tank last time I ordered from him and the two maroons hosted in them, but these two will host in anything. They took to the rose bubbles instantly though. Whenever there is a bubbletip they prefer it to anything else.

[Tim Marvin]

Mike P same guy. I'll can him and try to get him to put in plants for sure. The gorgonians were unbeleivable last time though.
Sholz, no fire shrimp. Just what is on the list.

[witecap4u]

I'll take

1..Cleaner shrimp(larger the better...)
1..Sea Mat polyps


cs

[captexas]

Is a sea mat the same as a sea fan? I'm not familiar with that name and a few others on the list.

[SaltyJim]

Hey Tim,

Please add to my order:

1x purple gorgonian $11.25
2x peppermint shrimp
1x blue tang(sm)

in addition to the carpet anenome.

Let me know if this is unclear.

Thanks,

Jim

[GaryP]

The small zoo's are usually referred to as sea mat.

Gary

[captexas]

Ok, never heard of zoo's called that but after doing a search I see it listed in many places. Have to change my avatar back to Homer Simpson!

[Tim Marvin]

They are usually small green zoo's that is correct.

[SaltyJim]

OK.....now I want to add 1 sea mat too. I didn't realize that they were zoo's. Should have done some research.

Thanks all.

Jim

[Tim Marvin]

No problem, I have some ordered.

[sholzrichter]

Please count me in. Here is my list if they are available:
1 x blue tang (sm) $13.50 = $13.5
1 x saddleback blenny $7.50 = $7.50
2 x flame cardinal $8.25 = $16.5
2 x common starfish $1.50 = $3.0
3 x Halimeda, $1.50 = $4.5
3 x Udotea, $1.50 = $4.5
3 x Rhipocephalus $1.50 = $4.5
1 x bright purple long tentacle anemone $3.75 = $3.75

Total = $57.75 + shipping and/or other charges.
Thanks, Stephanie

[Jenn]

Ok Tim, here's mine:
2 Purple gorgonians @ 22.50
Sea Mat @ 6.00
Carpet anemone @ 7.50
Bright Purple LT anemone @ 3.75
Blue tang @ 13.50
Comes to $53.25 - please let me know what the shipping will be, and I assume the "blue tang" is a regal, correct?

Thanks Tim,
Jenn

[kaiser]

When do we need to place the orders? When is Pick-up?

[gcantu]

Tim,
Here is mine:

1 Sea Mat @ $6.00

Let me know when and where to pick up.
Thanks.

[Tim Marvin]

The blue tang are atlantic blues.I'll try to get a picture.

[Tim Marvin]

Here is a picture.

[Instar]

Tim,
My eyes are bad; don't see scarlet cleaners on the list, but, I'd like
2 scarlet cleaner shrimp
2 sally lightfoot crabs
2 neon gobies
6 flame cardnals
Thanks!

[Tim Marvin]

Now you guys know these blue tangs are yellow when they are small and turn a vibrant blue as they mature.....OK....
Instar, I have your order.

[witecap4u]

Could be a Juvi blue tang in the pic right above his tail. The only one I saw in person had blue/purple highlights above his eyes(looked much like a lemon peel angel but with different body shape....)

[Tim Marvin]

Shoot, I didn't even notice that one....

[Jenn]

Ok Tim, here is me REVISED order...(NO BLUE TANG)
2 Purple gorgonians @ 22.50
Sea mat @ 6.00
Carpet anemone @ 7.50
Bright purple LT anemone @ 3.75
TOTAL = $39.75
I figured the "blue" tang had to be something other than the regal for that price. Thanks for doing this order and let me know if you have any questions. I would like to find out when you are placing this and when I will need to come pick it up - I often work late during the week, but can make arrangements to get off early.

Jenn

[txyaloo]

Tim,
What is the pricing on the sailfin blenny, pistol shrimp, and flower anemone (epicystis crucifer). Also, is there any way to verify the sailfin blenny is this http://www.reef.org/member/forum/fom/mar03.htm?

Right now I would like:
1 pearly jaw fish
1 pistol shrimp
1 flower anemone
1 sailfin blenny if it as described as above...

Thanks,

Jeff

[sholzrichter]

Tim,

When are you going to place the order?

Jeff - if he's collecting from the keys I am betting the sailfin is more likely this fish - Emblemaria pandionis.

http://www.saltreef.com/images/galleries/Blennies/sailfin.jpg

If not though I'd love to get one of those black sailfins - they are way cool. Check out the one in the corner tank at aquatek - apparently no one can get them anymore.

[007]

Hey Tim,

If i can still get in on this order i would like to get 6 pepperment shrimps, and 10 turbo snails.

[bigelow]

Hello,

I would like to order:

$12 sea mat x2
$6 porcelain crab

thanks!!

[Tim Marvin]

OK the order has been placed. I add some extra stuff and should be able to fill everyones list if everything arrives. I'll have to just wait and see what he can get collected. This isn't a wholesaler so the only source he has for animals is what is in front of his mask. This is what gets us the cheaper prices though.

[Jenn]

Thank you so much Tim for doing this. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

[Tim Marvin]

Thank you guys for joining in. It gives us more buying power the bigger the orders are. If they see a trend for big orders they tend to take better care of you.

[gcantu]

When and where do we pick up our orders? I am just trying to figure out if I have to make a road trip by myself or if I can get someone to pick up my order and I will meet them halfway. I live on the N.E. side of town near IH35 and Loop 1604.

[Tim Marvin]

I am on the north side of Austin, but someone will be going down there or coming up here I assure you.

[Jenn]

Tim, when do expect they will come in? I am close to a halfway point between Austin and SA so we can try to work something out for you guys in SA, but I can only pick the items up from Tim on a Sat. or Sun.

[gcantu]

Jenn, I wouldn't mind driving into New Braunfels to pick up my stuff. I only ordered one sea mat at $6.00. When do you want me to pay you, before or after pickup??

[Jenn]

I live about 6 miles east of I-35 straight out of NB. I will have no prob picking the orders up from Tim, that is if I can do it on the weekend, and then bringing them to my house. You guys can just pay me when you come over and pick the stuff up.

Tim, is the weekend pick-up from me ok, and do I just leave the items in the shipped material while it waits for everyone to come get it?

[Jenn]

Tim, I was wondering if you have heard any feedback on our order. Thanks.

[Tim Marvin]

I am going to give him a call tomorrow. This is a little different than ordering from the wholesalers, which get the order out over night. This is coming from the collector so it takes him time to collect variety. He may go and collect just snails one day and fish the next. At any rate I will be giving him a call tomorrow, but don't want to bother him too much as he sends REALLY NICE stuff. I'lll post more as soon as I find out.

[Jenn]

Sounds good Tim. Look forward to hearing from you. Have a great Thanksgiving!

[Tim Marvin]

I just spoke with him and he has been having some problems finding everything. He will be going out of town for the weekend and is hoping to find all the livestock so he can ship next Wednesday.

[witecap4u]

Any word on this yet?

[Tim Marvin]

I'm going to call again Thursday. I don't know why he isn't in a hurry to collect this stuff.

[Tim Marvin]

You could be right.........I should just order a bunch of stuff and not tell anyone then when it gets here post it. People wouldn't get exactly what they wanted then though.

[mkengr45]

Is it too late for me to order a few things. Sorry for being so late on this, if not I understand and I will get in next time around. I would like 2 seamat and 5 emeralds. I think im too late but let me know.

Randy

[Tim Marvin]

Randy, I ordered a bunch of extra stuff, and I'm sure I can cover that.

[Jenn]

I may be interested in extras depending on when the stuff comes in.

[mkengr45]

awesome, I'm glad to hear that. I live in SA but can make the trip If you need me to. There is only one little problem, I getting my masters in Mechanical Engineering and have finals next week and I have to go to florida next friday at 5pm, I am going on a cruise so I won't be back for about 10 days. I can send you the money immediately, or give it to someone who is going up their. Would it be possible for you or someone else to hold on to my stuff till I get back. I got a weird little zoo frag I will give to anyone who can do this. Sorry for being a pain, this is just a crazy little 2 weeks I have coming up.

Randy

[mkengr45]

I guess depending on when the order comes in, I may be able to pick it up. But I do leave next friday.

Randy

[Tim Marvin]

Lets just wait and see for now.

[MikeP]

So anything ever happen with this order Tim?

[Tim Marvin]

I've given up. He'll probably come through at just the wrong time. I will re-post when I get something, I may just end up ordering from one of my other wholesalers.
