Re: [Killietalk] Natives in feeder goldfish tank's

["David sanchez" <barbax66 at peoplepc_com>]

Nick,
I feel you man I want some too. My buddy Markus up in your neck of the woods
wants them too. Seems the best time to get them is the spring though. So may
have to wait. Im sure I can send you a few when I get some to Markus I
believe he is in your area.  I went collecting during the rainy season
here( bad move) and we spent a whole day and found nothing. Needless to say
I was disappointed but looking forward to getting some this spring. I still
have an empty tank waiting for them.

Dave
