Hi Tony,

I'm down as well... and live in G'burg... and know where you live :) - so I could come by.

When's the order going in?

I was thinking of putting the order in early next week.... maybe by Tuesday afternoon.

Sounds like we have 4-5 folks interested in getting something sooner than later. Anyone who orders can either pickup at my place in Gaithersburg or I can bring to the January meeting.

Go ahead and post what you want here before Tuesday and I'll put in the order. Use the "6 or more, mix or match" prices and make sure you list size of the package as most of the foods come in different sizes.

YSS I have always wondered about the two Discus foods you had mentioned. Have you used them before and how do they stack up versus Hikari BW?

Thanks,

I have used one of the two discus food, but don't remember which. I have noticed that each discus had its own preference. Some would prefer beef heart over others and some would love the discus food. So, it's hard to say. Also, from what I've heard blood worms are not very high in nutiritional value, so I always like to add other frozen food. I used to feed my discus blood worms plus the discus food made by scales, but now they are closed I have to find an alternative.

YSS,

An Administrator((Brewmaster15)) on the Simply Discus board makes his own beefheart mix that I have wanted to try but he will only ship in quantities of 10 lbs. Would you be interested in splitting? I live in Gainesville but work in Falls Church so it would be pretty easy for us to meet up.

Below is a PM he sent me.

Hi BC,
Its cold enough to ship but I only ship in quantities of 10 lbs or more... Smaller amounts just aren't worth the effort and don't ship as well.

For 10 lbs to you...
$160 for the BH mix + $45 shipping overnight = $205.

hth,

Hmmmm.... That's $20/lb. Pretty expensive. I used to get my mix from scales for about $10/lb and blood worms from Drs. Foster & Smith is ~$8/lb. I will have to think about it.

Gotcha Matt.

Figuring out things out now. Will post/PM totals in the AM with shipping. Have to put it all in an XL spreadsheet to figure things out, lol.

Still planning on ordering tomorrow.

I need a couple small things from them not food I could order those and help lower the shipping cost.

Wil-

Pretty sure that the frozen stuff and the dry goods come from different shippers; sorry dude.

The discus cubes are on backorder.... want something different instead or just the rest of the order?

Sorry,

OK,

So without YSS' discus cubes, I've figured subtotals and shipping as is follows. If you please, paypal me at anthonyhoros@gmail.com. (Please, do it "personal," so that I don't get dinged with a Paypal fee... stick it to da man, yah!!!!!).

I have broken out shipping pro-rated by your order value divided by the total order value times $24.99 (base shipping).

Tony: $55.52 + $5.06 = $60.58
Francine: $46.74 + $4.26 = $51.00
YYS: $62.85 + $5.73 = $68.58
Matt: $35.55 + $3.24 = $38.79
Jen: $14.34 + $1.31 = $15.65
O'Shea: $13.44 + $1.12 = $13.44

Total: $274.06

Anyways... thanks so much guys for jumping in! We're definitely getting a solid deal! I'm planning on ordering tomorrow afternoon, so if possibe, get me the loot in the next day.

If not, I'll sell your order to the highest bidder, lol. :p

If I make the order tomorrow mid-day, I should receive the order Wednesday. I'll freeze it for the January meeting. If you want to pick it up before then, give me a call, stop by, check out the tanks and have a beer..... PM me to make arrangements.

Thanks again, y'all,
Tony
