    (NEW) AEFW TREATMENT AT BRK

    in Blue Ribbon Koi

    Sounds like a great product, I think this guy got a hold of his bottle a little late.  Fortunately I have not tried it!  I would love a test subject so if someone has them and would like to use it as prescribed on the bottle and write up the results each day I would donate the bottle and keep your name confidential!  Send me a PM or email at john@blueribbonkoi.com

    in General Discussion

    OK so right after my last post I get this, so its a start.

     

     

    (Letter from our supplier, see letter below. Hopefully soon!)
    Dear Customer
    I was asked if this letter means we are able to import corals again.
    This letter means for domestic corals from Mataram and Bali only, but its not for exporting. The answer is not yet.

    ***IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING INDO CORALS***

    in Blue Ribbon Koi

     

    ***IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING INDO CORALS***

    ​As you may have heard, the Indonesian government has stopped the issuing of Health Certificates for Live Coral and Anemone shipments.  The Health Certificate is required in order to load the shipments on to the airplanes.  Until the situation is resolved between the various government departments in Indonesia, there will be no Coral or Anemone shipments from Indonesia.

     

    Is price the bottom line when you buy livestock?

    in General Discussion

    Can we make a list of places that offer fully quarantined fish?

    Dutchman’s Reef

    Marco

    Reef Escape

    TFYB

    Dr. Mac

     

    Any others?

     

    I think you should make everyone aware of what you are considering fully quarantined fish!  4-6 weeks IMHO is a fully quarantined fish, we have our own protocol as well, but I will be the first one to tell you that everyone should QT their own fish.  We have wholesalers that supposedly quarantine fish, and charge a good amount more as well.so that cost just gets carried down the line, but then what??  Does that mean we don't run our protocol then????  Not so.  Be smart, ask questions, find out how long fish have been in a store, see if they are eating, monitor their behavior etc.  I will not get into a discussion on here about QT because there are so many differing opinions, and quite frankly very tainted opinions.  But if you come into my store and want to know what WE do I would be happy to share that with you, and I think you will be surprised, especially seeing that we are Not on that biased list above.

    in Blue Ribbon Koi

    Fellow WAMAS Members, as we all know social media has taken over our lives, including small business promotions.  Im sure you have noticed very little postings on here latley from us, and it is simply the fact that we cant manage to be on all platforms effectively.  I post on Facebook very often, many times with live feeds including Fridays where I walk through the store and give you a glimpse of what is in stock.

    I strongly encourage you to Like our facebook page so you can stay current with our happenings, including sales, deals, rare fish our corals, unboxing specials etc.
