Requesting certain color morphs from LFS??

[PJtree23]

Is asking a LFS owner in the midwest (Iowa) to order a yellow color morph of the Ritteri crazy?

The owner said that he could order a ritteri and have it here no problem in two weeks, but I also want to specify a yellow color morph.

After reading a lot online I've realized the rarity of these specimens...so is it asking too much???

Should I got o MACNA 2011 and have someone bring one in for me?

Any advice appreciated.

The odds that you'd end up with a dyed nem are pretty high.

I would just go to MACNA dude. Talk to a supplier there and see if you can swing a deal with them if you pay half ahead of time for one. Youll prolly get a better deal and will cut out one less tank the nem has to go in until it gets to you. My LFS actually has as policy that if you special order a fish you have to come pick it up the day it comes in.
