The water has really started to clear up the past couple days and he's been able to collect some of our fish. He'll continue collecting and hopefully be sending us fish this weekend.

Here's an update for each group of fish ordered.

Hawaiian Flame Wrasse Harem:

MikeB
P-deezy
Palileo(me)

Payment has been sent for these. He's got one harem and hoping to collect the rest to send out this weekend.

Mystery Wrasse Pair:

Palileo(me)
BBcoach
Loup
PogiBoy67
Lineaspoke

I received the last payment for these yesterday and sent payment to him. I have not heard anything back on these yet.

Scarface Blennies:

JeffReef - 2
Palileo - 2
DJScribz - 1
JNReef - 1
All Delight - 1
OneSaltyDog - 2
Kdblove_99 - 1
SteveOhh - 1
Solitaryensis - 1
Slavearm - 1
Jlfnjlf - 1
Drdoolittle - 1
Otterpop510 - 1

I still haven't received payment from everyone but was able to get these ordered. They'll most like be here this weekend. If anyone else wants one of these there's room for at least 4 more as he's hoping to collect at least 20 of them over the next day or two.


Message to all:

Can everyone please e-mail me their paypal account info, phone number, RC handle and which fish you ordered. I would like to have a final count to verify quantities, fish ordered, and also be able to send out updates to everyone via e-mail.

Please e-mail me at: rpalileo@gotwraps.com

Thank you,
Ryan

That is a great price! LMK if it is too late to order or not.

I've stopped taking orders on the all the fish.


UPDATE: With the recent and current rains in Hawaii, the water has been murky. He hasn't been able to collect enough of our fish to ship to us yet. I'll keep you posted and here's a link so you can also watch the weather report for Hawaii. Sorry guys, I'm hoping we can catch a long enough break in the weather there to get us some fish...

Did you ever get my email from last week? I didn't get a response to my email or PM's. If you are willing to give up your contact LMK and I will order them myself. Thank You
 
Hey Ryan,

Tomorrow is Tuesday and when we spoke last you had said you would have these in by tomorrow, so when would be a good time to stop on by and pick these up? If for some reason things did not work out the way we had agreed, I will unfortunately need to cancel my order. Please let me know!

Thanks!
 
I know that Hawaiian Flame Wrasse Harem and Mystery Wrasse as pair are very rare and hard to get, I doubted that any one in Hawaii have that many to sell, I called couple wholesellers in Hawaii last year and the the most they have was I think 1 or 2 in stock. Are you sure this is a good order. You have a list of about 6 people per fish.

Hey Mike,

Just looked over our last PM to each other and I never specified they would be getting here by tomorrow. I asked that you bear with me on this as I'm at the mercy of weather permitting the diver to collect these. Don't know if he'll be sending us fish by tomorrow because he's only got a few fish so far. If you look on the weather report it's been raining out there the past 3 days which has caused the water to become a bit merky. In my original post, I let everyone know it would be a couple weeks for him to collect these for us and that was with good weather, sorry I don't get to tell Mother Nature to let up for us... We're actually going on 2.5 weeks since I was able to send him the money for these as I needed to wait for all payments to send it to him.

There is a diver that is collecting these for us... they are not at a wholesaler... I understand that they don't get them in that often, we were able to get a diver who is a friend of my sister and he is working on collecting these. With the weather like it is, it's taken a bit longer than expected. This is a good order everyone... Again, sorry it's taking a bit longer.

Ryan, Don't expect (or ask) them to ship them the day after they collect them. You really need to let the fish go through a destressing period to where they begin eating again and are healthy, then they would be best starved for a day or two before shipping them (so that they do not foul their transport bags/water). Just some suggestions based on experience.

Best of luck to you.
 
Ryan,

I must have misunderstood when we last corresponded, my apologies if I have. For some reason the following PM thread is what gave me the impression we would be doing something by today:

Fair enough. I just did not want it to be one of those one week turned into four type of deals and it being left open ended. Ok, so by next Tuesday we should be good to go?

BTW, you still have that 125 for sale?

Hey Mike,

Please try to bear with me for another week... I've already sent him payment for all the fish and not sure how he'd handle needing to refund. It's a under 2 weeks since we paid and I initially stated that it could take a couple weeks to get them with the way the weather has been in Hawaii. I wasn't able to send him payment for these until March 3 when I received the last payment for them.

And in the original correspondence dated on Feb 26, 2007, you had wrote: "We're looking at about 2 weeks for him to get these all collected and shipped to us." I planned for this, and now that it is not clear on when these could be coming in, I cannot simply leave it open ended. With the other things I have brewing, I really would not want to be in the middle of doing something to the system that would cause these fish any additional stress should they arrive unannounced.

I do not mean to air dirty laundry out in the open but your PM box was full originally and it looked as if a few folks were wondering the same thing so I thought it would be more efficient to answer everybody at the same time.
