I still want several and i believe im first in line how many do you have?

don't mean to be ugly but if u check the 2nd post it was by me so I am first in line ur next.

[mattymalcolm]

u are right i apologize. How many are you going to take?

Alright, there is more interest in these little guys than I thought so I will answer some questions and give you my game plan:

a) There should be enough to go around for everyone (I have lots) so no need to worry about who was first in line etc. just pm me with the exact number you want and we'll go from there

b) The color varies slighly but it's close (maybe a little darker) to the sample pic I linked to in my original post

c) There seems to be a number of people in SA that want these fish so I will stop there around 1-2pm on Friday on my way to Austin (pick up location TBD)

If there are any other Q's please don't hesitate to ask.

IF you have so many to supply several people, I would like to know where you aquired these from.

They were collected from sargassum mats during an offshore trip in the Gulf of Mexico... along with some sargassum triggers but those are in my reef tank and are not for sale

I'm not sure how far offshore you where, but if you were within 9 miles(state waters) of the coast, then it is not legal to sell these. Any shrimp, invert, or fish collected in the state of Texas can't be sold legally unless you have a commercial license. I'm not sure about federal waters and what regulations they have, but I think it might be helpful to check up on them.
