Very impressive.... anyone brought in a white abberrant before?

No.

White queen is a very uncommon morph of the queen angel and is so far only seen in St Paul's Rocks, Brazil.

Singapore has NEVER imported any St Paul queens before.

St Paul's collection has stopped since more than 10 years ago.

Even back then when St Paul's queens are available, no white queen has ever been documented in the trade. Not even in Japan and HK where they get the bulk of the St Paul queens.

According to a credible LFS, back then St Paul queens are just priced a little higher than normal queens. Around 200 USD wholesale. So if we received it would just be slightly over $400.

However St Paul queens amazing coloration is known to revert to normal in captivity. As such even if a white queen is ever available, be prepared it will turn normal after a while.

Although my preference is a blue queen, the yellow queen (mostly from brazil) is also not easy to find, in fact it is harder to find!

Shown here is a very yellow queen.

I think Bigbird or someone else here kept a Brazilian yellow queen as bright as the fish above. So if u see this thread pls update us with some pics!

Wow... this piece is super hyper active. Nice.
