Im in need of a new proven pair of atleast 50% wild angelfish, anyone know anywhere? full wilds are even better for me but will take anything over 25% that I can get.

Lost my black half wild male this morning.

Thanks.

Sorry to hear about your angel. I wish I could help with finding wilds for you but I don't know of anyone.

Two places that could maybe help.

http://www.riverwonders.com my mom got some crazy fancy pleco from them either last summer or two summers ago, and she was pretty happy with them.

or

http://www.tangledupincichlids.com/ Jeff is an awesome guy, and may be able to get you some even if he doesn't have any.

Why do you want most/all wild? Is it a genetics issue? I do know someone local to me that's a discus/angel breeder they're all very pretty but his are very much NOT wild.

Wilds are a different kind of angel, they are more aggressive, alot more territorial and breed like crazy with a simple water temp drop.

I also noticed that the wild genes are disappearing from the hobby and bring that back in the fish will start to change. Imagine a wild double black and a phillipino blue...

If anyone can get you some nice angels and wilds it would be poppopsfish....

Don't forget to tell him we sent you... Send him an email, I am sure he can get you started!

Heh. That's who I was talking about as far as not having wild stuff.

Last time I was at his place he had nothing in the way of wild anything. He was doing some sort of crazy angel breeding thing trying to get them to be something with some blue in it or something like that. Maybe he had some and didn't mention it but I don't know if I could tell wild and not wild angels apart anyhow.

The orange splotchy koi colored angels are about the only ones I've ever been tempted by. The rest of them never really caught my eye.

Funny, I haven't talked to him in a long time, prob sense he was on here last. Anyway maybe he don't I'm not sure cause it's been a while!

If he is a good breeder he is working on the phillipino blue line.

Pops doesnt have nothing for me, I did find a wholesaler who's owner is a hobbyist and will import direct for club folks.

Im still on the search though, F1's or better. I need to get my angels back in stock the demand is starting to tick me off.

I have a friend that works at a fish farm. They stopped doing tropical fish to focus on just koi and super fancy goldies, but I'll ask if they know any sources for you.

I'm sure the pickins are pretty crappy and or potentially unreliable but have you checked aquabid?

yeah there is nothing on there right now, but did find out from an importer yesterday that the F1's and better are getting harder to obtain because the price is going up on them. The Phillipino blue craze is partially to blame he said.
