Senior Reefer yikai Posted June 9, 2013 Senior Reefer Share Posted June 9, 2013 illusionary and phantom like niger angel photographed again in japan. Chaetodontoplus niger is very rare and just as suddenly as it appeared in photos in 2012, it disappeared again, until now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digiman Posted June 9, 2013 Author Share Posted June 9, 2013 illusionary and phantom like niger angel photographed again in japan. Chaetodontoplus niger is very rare and just as suddenly as it appeared in photos in 2012, it disappeared again, until now. One of the rarest of its genus, perhaps second only to the ballina angel. Its small size will make this fish a highly desirable angelfish to keep if it is ever made available. Not even a public aquarium has this fish on exhibit.

Senior Reefer yikai Posted June 11, 2013 Senior Reefer Share Posted June 11, 2013 How new is the flavo and from where? It has one of the cleanest crowns I've seen! But unlikely to be pure blood since its from the marshalls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But unlikely to be pure blood since its from the marshalls. Its from a Japanese LFS. Yes new fish but whether it is pure blood flavo no one can tell anymore. In fact the gene pool in marshalls is probably so mixed up that there is no longer pure flavo. So i guess who cares whether it is a real flavo as long as it looks flavo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if there's even any flavo without any black markings in the first place. Not seen any such pic. As long got visible flavo blood, its a desirable fish.

Terryz_ Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 This hybrid is found to be easier and more bold than its parents, according to the report about the one that is sold in 2008..

Senior Reefer yikai Posted June 13, 2013 Senior Reefer Share Posted June 13, 2013 one of my most coveted japanese fishes isn't interruptus or some fancy expensive deepwater fish, but the humble but very pretty bellae goby. V. bellae is a pink sandsifter from japan. it has made its way to the U.S before and i believe it will show up here soon with my constant pestering... here's V. bellae from route 66 marine 1 year ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
