For(bues0022) thx for letting me know who he is but i know who rod is i have talked to him before but ive never asked him were he got his clowns and alot of people say that he got them for c-quest and alot of people say something else thats why i rather see it in his own words but thx for the info and nice onyx pair

Well I actually go them from Inland Aquatics many years ago(15?). They are C-quest line.

Rod, is it true that you will no longer be selling them even to places like premium aquatics and stop breeding them totally, just want to make sure because thats what people are telling me, if so im going to pick up some from them before they run out.

 

[jojo42689]

well hurry up and get a pair because i heard they were running out they have like 24 left

It's not true. He's still breeding them.

The last bit about Premium Aquatics was that for a while they had unfortunately mislabeled their latest batch of babies as 'last available'.

i got my Rod's onyx from premium aquatics, and they showed little blackening in a BTA, once I got a sebae, they started to darken almost immediately...have yet to go full onyx yet tho

I still have momma and poppa, and they are still putting down eggs. I havent had time to do much with them lately. I have also been thinning out a lot of tanks lately. When I get things squared away, I will likely raise some more. Premium aquatics had " The last" of what I had in my tanks and as far as anyone really knows for sure, I guess it could be the last. They knew that I havent raised any in the last few months, and they knew that I was thinning out. So, their statement of "the last" isnt really that far out of line. They are the last that will be available for quite awhile.

Thanks Rod, hope you get back into raising them as I am sure alot of people will want "Rods Onyx".

the momma and the poppa are really nice
