Wild caught clarion shipment in HK. It has been quite long since we last had wild caught clarion.

The adult clarion especially reminds us how red a clarion can grow to become in the wild! Gorgeous!

Thanks Joe!

This is a fish that i will never been able to remember the name. Its an aquarium oddball and look freshwater more than marine. I have asked for its name back in 2013 and now in 2015 i forgot and is asking it again. Frankly speaking i also do not get it why people want to keep them, they look more like foodfish. Those specimens that were shipped to HK and JP were all 20cm to 30cm, huge!

Aberrant angelfish (Most likely aberrant multispinnis but this fish is definitely NOT a new species!)

Lampris guttatus.

I am very intrigued by this oceanic fish!

Aberrant angelfish (Most likely aberrant multispinnis but this fish is definitely NOT a new species!)

I particularly like how they made up a binomial name for it... though they didn't form the epithet correctly. "Dilani" is apparently a common female name in Sri Lanka.

If we must make up phony taxonomies, let's at least do it correctly. Centropyge delaniae!
