How to buy ORA mandarin fish in Canada?
 
I am trying to buy a mated pair of Ora blue mandarin fish and I live in Vancouver. J and l said they can't get them in because Ora is favoring larger stores in the USA. Anyone have any ideas on how to get them?

Btw took me 45mins to figure out how to post...

Call Progressive Reef in Victoria. They had a couple of greens a few weeks ago and may be able to get you some blues. from what I can tell all the mandys coming in from ORA are young and doubtful if they can even be sexes yet. You will not find a mated pair.

For those in the east, Hubert at Reef Aquatica had some a while back but I don't know the present status.

Got mine at blue world Edmonton a few weeks ago

You won't be able to get a pair because the supply is so limited. You will be lucky to get one at all!

What kind did you get and how did it work out? Are they eating?

Yeah I had a feeling that was going to be the case but I am willing to be on a list for a couple months since my rsm 250 (my upgrade tank :) ) still doesn't have rock in it yet.
