Olive Cowry's

[aggman]

hey guys i picked up a few of these on the island and they have been breeding like crazy, so if anyone wants some let me know.

i can sell them for like 3 for $10.00, i dunno they sell for $7.99 online. they are great sand-sifting cowries and they have beautiful shells that don't get dull and ugly or get covered in coralline. here is a pic i took from aquacon, for rep. purposes. my camera skills are non-existant, lol.

Do you have a dealers permit to legally sell stuff that you collected?

[Jarob]

if they breeded then arnt they tech. captive raised?

[BIGBIRD123]

That's a fine line that I would want to walk. You have to be able to distinguish the bred ones from the captured. The fines aren't worth the trouble.

please read my post again! i am not selling the cowries i collected. i am selling their offspring.

i have a resident fishing license and that is all i need to collect these guys. if they happen to make whoopi and have babies once they are in my tanks then its all good. i have already checked. believe me, with all the experts on maast, i have learned to research first!

and before anyone asks-i am able to differentiate the collected from the bred because of a sharpie. a little trick i learned from my lfs. make markings on the ones you collect. they had some snails that were used in a study and had markings on them. i thought that was a great idea. so i stole it. lol.
