Inventory. I'm not a fan of ordering ribbons online. Seeing if the lfs can get 1 or 2 in. Ny aquatics has them in. But, the guy never replied to email or dm.

Petes aquarium has some in. I doubt they'd give me an honest answer on health.

STAY AWAY FROM PETES....

that place is an Absolute Chop shop, and are SUPER Sketch

Wasn't planning on it. My options are very limited. The guys who have ribbons for sale... They are shady. I don't know much about ny aquatics on here. I guess they're ok?

Tank Stop. @ Eric Cohen on here

Goaway · Jun 25, 2022

I'll talk to him.

Goaway · Jun 25, 2022

Messaged Eric earlier today as tank stop didn't have ribbons in stock, wanted to know when t hey would be expecting them in. Get home to a DM from eric, there is one now in stock for me to order.. no QT set up... That was quicker than I was expecting. :eek:

Did not order yet. Waiting for a response from him. If it's the only 1... I may pull the trigger.

I want to live vicariously through you. Man says no eels.
Wonder if he can get me my blue chin trigger.

My husband lives my fish list. He'd never say no. Unless, it's letting them go.

Some fish do poorly in qt. Ribbon eels benefit from solitude as they need time to adjust.

I would not hesitate to place an order, through him again.

My H. Mag came from him sight unseen. Exceeded expectations. He hand carried at home for me because he lives halfway between me and his shop, Just to make it easier for me to pick up, If that shows you anything about his character.
