:paiseh:

anyway at CF

- very healthy pellet eating bandit. 3-4 inch

1 no. very nice bandit in CF spotted this morning auntie claimed on mysis diet sparsely, colouration of white & black -perfect. approx. 6 inches. ,hope auntie can get it to feed on pellet soon.

Yup. Saw the Bandit. Good condition.

But only feeding on mysis sparesly (as told by Auntie as well).

Did not respond to the pellets thrown in.

This is contrary to initial condition (eating pellets) reported by LemonLemon.

Remind me of my first Bandit.

Eating pellets on the first day, but somehow stopped eating and slowly decline in health.... :cry2:

BANNED

The hawaiian rainbow cleaner wrasse (Labroides phthirophagus) is banned from import by Hawaii. This has been going on for quite awhile now now as there are no more hawaiian rainbow cleaner wrasse being imported.

The hawaiian endemic is found only in hawaii and is over-harvested, thus the ban.

all cleaner wrasses coming from hawaii shipments are still labelled as rainbow cleaner wrasse, and the scientific name is still labelled as L. phthirophagus. they are labelled wrongly

However the wrasses that are imported are not L. phthirophagus but instead, are the red lip cleaner wrasses (L. rubrolabiatus). Occasionally, the normal blue cleaner wrasses are also imported from hawaii and are also mis-labelled as the true rainbow hawaii cleaner.

so for those looking for this beautiful cleaner with the worst survival record, sorry but we won't be seeing them anymore.

first two pictures are the hawaiian rainbow cleaner. banned, and replaced in shipments with the last picture, the red lip cleaner.

false shepardi?

could either be rusty flame hybrid, or rusty angels that look shepardi-ish.

cannot be the real rusty flame as they won't come in so many pieces, but i won't dismiss the thought. tomorrow will go check out.

i suspect just normal rusty flame angels..

me too :( i just puke on myself while i'm resting. :sick: must be you.

ahhhhhh....

too much info i guess

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.

:shock: seen the pics between the 2 angels for afew times, guess i should make a pair of old man glasses.. :chair:

really learn alot, tink go auntie take a look tomolo

huh!?

they look so different!!

rusty angels are so ugly compared to the legendary goddess, that is, the rusty x flame angel!!

rusty angels are so messy with so much spots everywhere. whereas rusty flames are a deep orange with thin subtle lines.

to each his own i guess, and i'm still dreaming of the day where a rusty x flame angel is shipped in via cebu shipments.

Pseudanthias flavoguttatus flooding the local market by the hundreds recently. We are very lucky to have them here at such reasonable prices. People pay way higher in the states.

For those people who still have not had their share, this friday should have more coming in at iwarna.

confirm again closer to the date.
