Liveaquaria Group Buy?
- Thread starter JRR1285
- Start date
I would potentially be interested, though not really stocking much but a clean-up crew in my FOWLR these days. I might want a Pom Pom Crab or two though, so that would help with the enormous shipping costs.
You have to be mindful of the shipping date(s).....when dealing with livestock. Each member of the group buy has to be available to pick up asap on the day of delivery and sometimes there are delays. I did a group buy on clean up crews to save on shipping which involved at least 5 different orders. The shipment was delayed which created an issue for a few of the members of the group buy. I had to setup temporary holding tanks to keep the livestock alive until those members could pick up, also everyone shows up at different times....was a bit of a hassle. SO.......just keep these things in mind.
I could easily come out to riverhead to pick something up. I would need a week notice though before the order so I can get my QT tank cycled. I definitely want another fish in my tank, thinking maybe a dwarf angelfish.
Group ordering would be ideal as even if its a mix of Divers den and the regular section, it'll be way less expensive.
BTW, I am in Hewlett, if that helps. I think we should order to whoever is available to get the shipment and as centrally close to the rest of the people in the order.
I would love it, but am okay if I need to get my next purchase from the LFS. I am planning to get a Dwarf angel in hte next week, if people want to arrange something, I am buying at a store if I cannot find someone to help with costs.
If I order, I would prefer to have it next saturday, or if someone else is getting it to them, anytime during the week next week is fine.
