The hybrid clowns(True Percs X Black Ocellaris) at Iwarna are adult, abt 1.5" to 2". Some has good body shape and coloration. Price is reasonable. The Black Ocellaris are juv ones. All looks healthy with nice shape and fins.

no idea on the yasha.

swalesi 4.5 red notes each. pretty standard price.

beware of brightly coloured specimens though... could be cyanide caught. since liopropoma species are very difficult to catch in the wild..

but then again... there are some swalesis which are very much redder than normal naturally. so it's not confirmed.

Does it look like tat:

Blog%2B-%2BLiopropoma%2Bsp%2B02.jpg

or lux like tat:

swalesi.jpg

bottom 1.

top one is way too red and is not swalesi. it's an undescribed liopropoma sp.

the bottom 1 is still very red compared to the normal swalesi which is usually a washed out orange and grey.

If a man could beat his own fantasy. Then to only breed in captivity. Then its pointless.

Genesis 1:20

And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that has life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth. And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.
