Phantom's!

[kmaintl]

Can't wait to see what you LFS picked up for you? I'm sure you already got your pair reserved! QT them anyways, even if they appear to be healthy.

 

[mainereefer]

lol my 2 have been reserved for around 3 weeks! I will post pics in a couple days!!
they are in qt at the lfs, they will be very healthy when I get them, and I treat every fish going into my tank with formalin
the lfs here is great the owner is a hobbiest himself instead of just an owner trying to make $$.

my LFS owner has been a good friend from nearly 30 years. he knows a lot about disease management. he also knows i make it a practice of QT everything, but the last 2 fishes that i bought from him, one died after a week and not sure what killed it. it had a sore on the side when it died. i just lost an onyx clownish that was in one of the holding tanks on the same system, it had a sore on the side. i use prazipro on all my QT fishes for 2 weeks and observe them during that time. now, i can't take in anything new until i figure out if this will continue and what it is.

of course, the fish i bought was wild caught and i know the your pair is captive bred... but i still QT everything myself.

I got direct drop ship from sea and reef, so I didn't bother honestly. I did the same when I brought home my snowflake and black ice in the shipping bag from sustainable aquatics.

finally brought my phantoms home!

here is one that went to host the nem with my blizzard clown
the happy couple

and a top down pic (I just like the pic)

here is the other that went with my darwin. its hard to get a pic from the back of my 180 so once he settles in I will post more pics of him

 

[kmaintl]

Very nice, it was worth the wait... and you were lucky to be able to hand pick what you wanted. Very nice indeed... great pickup!

not sure how fast any more will get to most lfs, I was told that S&R is now only letting one phantom out for every $500 order placed! and they are sold out for the next couple months

the lfs where I got mine has a pair left. send me a pm if you want to get probably the last pair for the next couple months

 

[3Twinklets]

Very pretty. Worth the wait. I love clowns!

****... Was hoping I can get another one with my Wyoming order... I'll have to talk to my guy.

 

[mainereefer]

dont think it will happen! maybe? greg and soren are good friends so maybe? but greg dosnt stock any fish so I dont see him ordering 500 worth of fish to get 1 for you or who knows how much you will have to order to get the white? I know he only is letting each lfs order 1 pair per month

 

[seamonkey84]

Well I'll see, I've been waiting for months to find a WW so a bit longer won't hurt, and I'm sure my wallet won't mind. But I know Ill have better luck getting a WW right now than another Phantom lol.

 

[mainereefer]

the lfs down the road had 2 phantoms still if you want another

 

[seamonkey84]

Yea I can wait, or my wallet is begging me to. But has anyone else seen the black snowflake that ora has at in their display at macna? It's on their Facebook wall, they say they have been limited shipments for a few weeks but this is only the second pic ive seen, not counting their announcement last year.

 

[kmaintl]

I had a ORA black snowflake a couple of months ago, before they rleleased to LA DD. I didn't keep it, so someone else has it now. I lean more towards the Phantom.
