OMG! Look at these hybrids and rare fishes!

[mopiko]

Does this looks like a hybrid of Brown tang with Black tang??

think its brown tang cos saw them in this shade before but will change to total brown too.

[Nitro]

Well I did seen a so call Hybrid Long Nose Black Tang. Body is black in colour with a tinge of bluish base on the head potion but body pattern is really like a Scopas.

[yikai]

i would love to own the black varient of the longnose butterfly..

[Digiman]

i see....then i guess LCK is the only one who can bring in. but its not so easy also..need to get a demand for it first -.-

No need to check if there's demand, small and cute fishes like this sure snatch by pple when it's available.I'm sure LCK knows this as well, they just need someone to let them know this fish actually existed so they can see if they can make order with ORA. Actually there are many uncommon fishes that our LFS's can bring in, but the knowledge of the varieties of fishes they know is limited so these fishes are not seen here. Good luck on your find.

Unusual... izzit as agressive as the norms??

[yikai]

dun think so. different colour but same fish should be same behavioural pattern also. if anything, it should be determined by the individual fish instead of the colour. but i have to say, those xanthid fish looks dam scary haha

yes agree, the deepwater form is definitely an attention seeker. Wonder which LFS here can bring in Cook Island stocks, really love to see this kind of helfrichi and the cook island scott's fairy.
