Hello fellow Minnesotan

I thought you were from the uk Stratters

English, raised in Minnesota

Little place called Eden Prairie, I now live just outside Louth, in Lincolnshire.

Where are you getting the Congo? Been after one for ages and orders fail or bring the wrong fish. Get it whilst you can

Do you want me to ask if they can source one for you? I'll happily collect it, and bring it halfway.

RED Congos are very rare to find but also are Hairys.

That is a very kind offer, I have to study a fish prior to purchasing it. They get a good once over, I could never commit to a fish I have not seen. Thank you very much for the kind offer though. Would you mind asking which supplier has access to these fish for me? I could then get some ordered by a couple of my local stores

That's not helpful, Pufferpunk! I desperately want the Hairy, but I'm a) wary of buying a fish unseen, and having it couriered, and b) it's a heck of a lot of money.

And then there's the Congo, which is simply stunning. In my eyes anyway, my family just give me that knowing pity look.

No worries, bertie; I'll ask them who their supplier is, and let you know.

Be sure whichever you buy, they send you a clear pic of the exact fish you will be getting. I had to get my red Congo shipped from Texas.

I'm going to go and look at the Congo tomorrow. Which means I'll probably come back with him

I'll post you lots of pics, you know I'll fall hopelessly in love with him.

The housework will be abandoned.
The laundry pile will reach epic proportions.
The kids will be left to go feral.
The cats will complain.
The dogs will sit and look mournful.

But you'll have one happy puffer!
