Hi! I'm brand new to this site. I am looking to spend $300-$450 on a used neoprene or silicone tail! If anyone has anything PLEASE let me know. I'm size XS in clothes and 5'4! Thank you:)

Check out the Facebook group "BUY, SELL, TRADE mermaid tails" I've seen several in that price-range there as well as here on MerNetwork. What is your tail experience?

My experience is little. I got my first fabric tail from my mom in early June. I live in KY (no bodies of water here:( ). But I go to MI often, I've swam about 20 times in it. I've been obsessed with mermaids since I can remember so this is really a dream come true. I would LOVE to have a silicone, neoprene or latex tail!! You?

You definitely should check out Purple Mermaid Studios! I ordered a brand new tail, neoprene/silicone hybrid, for $344 included shipping and taxes. Has pectoral, heel, and dorsal fins. Custom made and everything!
Good luck :)

That's so crazy!!! I've been in talks with purple mermaid on etsy to create a tail! She said she isn't taking orders for a few weeks though! She was so nice and helpful with just discussing designs! Do you have any pictures of your tail?? I'd love to see it! Also, is it durable and easy to swim in??

Silicon is always several steps up in restriction and durability from fabric tails, but it's also more dangerous. You said you've only swum in your fabric one a few times. Maybe hold off on silicon and try painted Neoprene. Heavier, less stretchy, but not silicon. Talk to Little-Orca/Mermaid Merlissa about that. She may be open to making yours, but she'd at least have more info.
