  1. I tend to think that its natural selection at its best. Not exactly playing god, since the deformed fish are destined to fill the stomach of a breeding pair of Belanoperca pylei (which can potentially be a breakthrough in the breeding of this fish). Personally, I'm not a fan of designer clowns too. But it does makes sense to me to fork out a sum of money for a frostbite clown, which is carefully cultured and bred from a single specimen with unique markings after several generations of selective breeding(imagine the cost of running each hactchery and the time taken). Its the same case as to why some pet owners would pay for a guinea pig or a short-nosed cat. Afterall, this keeps the market running and we all know when there's demand, supply would follow. Like it or not, humans have been "playing god" since the start of time. If the entire industry is dependent on "beautiful,wild caught fishes", I would doubt the long term sustainability of it
  2. LCK : Very nice RBTAs Many yumas and rics to choose from YTs Flame Angel Coral Beauty Stenopus cyanoscelis 2 very beautiful and uncommon specimens of Heniochus diphreutes Mini Declivis CF: Heard from auntie that green banded gobies might be coming in tonight
  3. Any Cook/Marshall Islands shipment coming in with Privitera/Aurulentus anthias?
  4. To each their own, but I tend to have a knack over yumas especially the less commonly seen colours such a multicolour/pink/red Some rics can grow pretty fast and many experience 'carpet-like' growth within months but then all these depends on your husbandry and water params
  5. Multi-colours can be uncommon but nowhere near rare. My last piece was from LCK. They're mostly from Marshall Islands/US consolidated shipments.
  6. Juvenile Apolemichthys xanthotis? Originated from a Kenya shipment. y
  7. The Juv kingi, peppermint and C.flavicauda are going to be exhibited at their booth during Interzoo 2014, as well as with a few other special fish I think its the first time the trade has ever encountered such a small specimen. The C.flavicauda is equally amazing, must be eye-opening to witness it in real! I guess its the wow factor but some say the price to fork out for a bristletooth is too much... Lastly, the CB clarions. I guess we all know the source! haha. And it looks to be quite successful!
  8. It's a Tiger Sponge, non photosynthetic Not a coral.
  9. I am looking for frags of Blue Cespitularia. Please PM me if you have:) Thanks!
