OMG! Look at these hybrids and rare fishes!

I hate it it looks sick!

I am very skeptical about all these white tangs and butterflies... I am not sure but it is possible that they kept the fish in a dark tank for a extended time till they become faded, Most fish will lose their pigment when they are in dark tank for a extended period of time..

Rare and deepwater Hemanthias peruanus from Sea of cortez available for the trade first time! Doubt it'll be as expensive as clarions but still expensive.

I believe it was id as Cf. alleni???

Yes new! Nice right!

It is even nicer than the grammistes we see so often..

[yikai]

So the dottyback u got last time is still undescribed?

nope.

it's Manonichthys alleni

[Digiman]

nope.

it's Manonichthys alleni

Weird then why the website put the pic of the female alleni when they are mentioning new species found.

Anyway alleni is v hard to get now cos CF supplier refuse to catch anymore, much like rusty flame. These philippines collectors can be so annoying sometimes, always jux catch the wrong fishes like those butterflies that cant be kept alive and refuse to catch other easy fishes that can fetch better money!

The beautiful Sacura Speciosa! Coming out from Bali and Sulawesi this sacura anthias will likely become widely available in a few years to come. It is found at deeper water around 150ft and since it's a sacura species they are active swimmers and usually occur at big numbers at depth, unlike holanthias species which is a more solitary and less active fish. Also one thing interesting about this fish is according to the diver who collected them, the patterns on every fish is different, as different as thumbprints!

And now the beautfiul Sacura Speciosa:
