I teach Fisheries Technology at Astoria High School. One of my students is seeking a source of live, preferably juvenile, tilapia (Niloticus or Oreochromis-type) for a student experiment in our Fisheries Technology class at Astoria High School. I know we can order from distant locations but would like to find a source with less transit-time. Any tips are greatly appreciated; you may reply offline to: lcain AT astoria.k12.or.us

I have received a report from work that Oregon has recently changed Silver dollars and Red Belly Pacu to Sell in Oregon.

I have looked around online, but have found nothing as of yet. Just a heads up.
