BROWN HOPLO FRY & BREEDERS

Post by brown hoplo »

Is there anyone that would consider selling me some fry or possibly a breeding set of Brown Hoplo's? I am very intrigued by these fish and would love the opportunity to raise a few myself.

If you would consider or know anyone that would consider, please let me know.

I'd appreciate any assistance.

Thank you!
Tony

I got some rather large ones from Snooks21 on Aquabid; he's based in Florida. Try him?

Brown Hoplo = ? If so, they are available in local rivers in Florida - ok, so you may not be able to catch them in the ditch at the back of your house, but I suspect they are available in some waterway near where you live! It would be a much better idea to get some feral ones than to buy some for two reasons:
1. It costs nothing.
2. You are removing an invasive species from the habitat it has invaded.
