    Anyone know of any good Blood/STP breeders?

    I am namely interested in a black blood/SSTP. But I'm cool with Borneos too.

    I've been having a hard time finding any breeders that I actually feel like I can trust.

    Any help/names would be appreciated.

    The Blood Cell -- Absolutely can't go wrong with Kara Norris!!!

    VPI -- Dave and Tracy Barker - Also excellent and extremely knowledgeable.

    There are others, too....but those are my top two choices. I'd be 100% comfortable and confident buying from either.

    I recommend Chris Kopecky as well, he runs badappleherps out of Denver. Just picked a pair of matrix het albino up from he. Extremely satisfied with the entire transaction and animals. He has a wide range of stuff too.

    Def can't go wrong with the Barkers or Kara Norris

    I want one from Kara bad but have never been able to find one. I did get three recently that are sired by a albino male from Chris Lipps paired with a Bangka female from Kara. I have high hopes for them.

    You will not be left wanting if you get your hands on one from Kara.

    Search her started threads to get an idea of what she puts out. Simply Amazing!

    What does "good" mean to you? What are you looking for in Blacks/Borneos? Physical characteristics such as specific colors/patterns? Large gene pool? Behavioral?

    Re: Anyone know of any good Blood/STP breeders?

    Thank you guys for all of your suggestions! I'll definitely be checking them out.

    "Good" was a poor choice of wording. By good, I suppose that I mean all three, but mainly health. I've seen and heard of a lot of Blood/STP breeders and after researching them, there are a good number of reviews that I've seen claiming that their Blood/STP arrived in an unhealthy condition/had mites/had scale rot or an infection/other issues. Other breeders that I found that didn't have negative reviews only sold wild-caught babies, and I only buy captive-bred.

    Behavioral as well.

    But mainly health.

    Again, thank you guys so much for your suggestions. I really appreciate it.
