Any aquarium enthusiasts in Northern Colorado? Orering some fish... anyone want in?

I'm putting together a group buy for fish since overnight shipping is expensive. I've got a few other local (Fort Collins/Loveland area or willing to drive) hobbyists who are going in with me and we're just going to divide the shipping total by however many people want to order. The two sites I'm using are tfdfish.com (no pictures, just lists but very well known and GREAT PRICES) and AZGardens.com (little more spendy but have pictures and some harder to find fish). Keep in mind that I'm in no way affiliated with these two sites and just a consumer like you. I stand to gain nothing from this other than saving on shipping by dividing it up by more people. I'm hoping to order tomorrow, Tuesday the 14th for a Wednesday the 15th delivery so if you're interested in anything shoot me an email QUICKLY to get in on this. Great opportunity to order that fish you've wanted that you can't find a local fish stores w/o having to pay $50 to ship it.

Thanks!

I can't order anything now but I was wondering what kind of fish you were ordering?

I'm ordering lots of cichlids (African/South American: Elec Blue, Taiwan Reef, Obliquedens, Sunshine Peacock, Red Empress, Electric Blue Jack Dempsey, etc), plecos (Royals, gold nuggets, Albino Bushy Nose, etc.) and loaches (clown, Yo-yo, Hillstream/Hong Kong, etc.) but the order will also include live plants and reticulated stingrays so the orders will be pretty diverse.

Last call.

Check out http://www.rockymountaincichlids.com/ they are in Johnstown I think. There is also a Rocky mountain Cichilid Association that has alot of local breeders. They have a fish auction twice a year aswell.

Thanks for the heads up. I was aware of rockymountaincichlids.com and they only had a couple of the fish I was looking for and if I have to order I might as well just order everything versus driving to Denver for a couple. I wasn't aware of the RMCA so I registered over there and will post to see if anyone wants in on the group buy. I will also look over the forum as I have more time to find local breeders and what they have available for next time. As of now though I need to stick with ordering because I have a few people that are in on this so I can't pull the plug on it at this stage.

I only order salmon from a bud in Washington.
