Drowsy 161 Posted April 25, 2013 So when I went to petco and saw that their feeder tank was full of long bodied double tailed goldies I couldn't help but snag a couple. I came away with two calicos and a red and black with some white. Currently they haven't been named. I tend to wait a few days and make sure they are doing okay before I give names. A couple of lovely little comets tagged along with them, and I decided that was okay since I will be getting a stock tank soon anyways. they are currently in a fifty gallon pond so I can dose them with prazi and keep a close eye on them. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fluffy 477 Posted April 26, 2013 (edited) What a great find for you and them. My local Petco and Petsmart would never take the time to catch a specific fish out of the feeder tank for anyone. You get what they can catch the fastest. Not very feeder friendly around my neck of the woods. Who the heck would sell fish that nice to Petco as feeders?

TorontoBoy 106 Posted April 26, 2013 Wow! Those feeders are huge, are double tailed and have vibrant colours. The feeders they sell here in Toronto are 1" long + tail, single tail commons or comets and cost $0.18/ea. How much were the feeders you bought from Petco? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

These feeders were $0.29 each. uwu The girl said they were so big no one was buying them to feed to anything. She said their last shipment was even BIGGER for some reason. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You get what they can catch the fastest. Not very feeder friendly around my neck of the woods. Who the heck would sell fish that nice to Petco as feeders? The people at my local petco are very understanding. xD It was the same girl that stood there to pick out my feeders last time. She knew the minute I was looking at them what I was up to. And I am not sure! I told them they should net out the big ones and sell them for normal goldfish price. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
