Having Trouble Finding a SAP in Massachusetts. HELP

Post by bumpylemon »

I refuse to pay 35 online in total for a South American Puffer. I have called a BUNCH of LFS and 90% of them said "thats not what they are called" or do you mean GSPs or F8's. I said No I want a SAP they are strictly FW...then they say F8 and GSPs are FW..Fu*king MORONS. anyway i really want this puffer and just dont know what to do...so if anyone on here has a resource for the New England area PLEASE let me know...thank you guys!!

When I am looking for a new puffer I try and find a picture of them in a book and then take that to the lfs and show them what I am talking about because most lfs have never seen/heard about most puffers. I know that fw puffers are really hard to find around me in the mid west. I have only seen dps, so I would get to know a lfs and see if you can order some, the owners will be more likely to help you if they know you. Sorry I can;t be of more help but I can't find any fw puffer around me either.

Is there a Petland Discounts by you? One of mine can frequently order them, you might wanna give them a shot.

the closest one would be southberry. thats like 2 hours away. do they ever have them in stock? most of the LFS say if its not on their list than they cant get them...and unfortunately the SAPs arent on their lists

Normally they have to order them, they might get the wrong fish too which wouldn't be good either.
