Digiman Posted October 27, 2009 Author Share Posted October 27, 2009 lol bro I figure you must be drooling to own most of Ching's fishes then No, i dun drool at his fishes, i drool at his tank. Of all of Ching's fishes i'm only interested in his resplenden, becos tat's the only real rare fish in his tank to me, almost unobtainable. OMG its a RESPLENDENT PYGMY ANGEL!!!! i also wanna own this fish!!! but isn't this fish illegal to be collected? read that its found only on Ascenion island owned by the British therefore not eay for tourist to visit Yes wild caught are not available anymore. I'm waiting for RCT.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digiman Posted October 27, 2009 Author Share Posted October 27, 2009 P. aculeatus was here before... Steven bought in and was selling at quite a good price... But not many collector for Majorie right and i think it is quite rare in the waters too..... Wah... Din know Falcifer came in before... But P. Marcellae is more yellowish compared to banks... Falcifer came only one piece i think. Aculeatus is actually the cheapest and the most obtainable prognathode. Yes Majorie is a rare fairy, but not so rare tat we'll never see it, like the holy grail earlei and sanguineus fairy. Especially now that there are more hunger and craving for rare fishes, collectors will start to see the profit in majorie and they'll target collect this fish and increase it's availability. I prefer marcellae over bank, how abt u? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
