pylei very aggressive... you going to regret later.

but yes the pylei is very very nice. seldom see pyleis so nice.

order of aggressiveness.

roseafascia > pylei > scotts.

im seriously thinking twice as well after i settled down at home. :mellow:

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.

vanuatu fishes at iwarna tomorrow.

Anthias

Fusilier (I think it is L. waitei)

The "fusilier anthias" is Lepidozygus tapeinosoma. It's actually not an anthias but is a damsel that mimic anthias. It's commonly called fusilier damsel, instead of fusilier anthias. Since it's a damsel, it is an easy fish that feeds readily. Uncommon in shipment and is the first time i see it.

Some pictures of iwarna's vanuatu fishes.

Anampses neoguinaicus (China wrasse).

Cirrhilabrus condei (Conde's fairy wrasse)

Cirrhilabrus punctatus (Vila/fine spotted fairy wrasse)

Paracheilinus rubricaudalis (Vanuatu flasher/red tail flasher wrasse)

Cirrhilabrus pylei (Pyle's fairy wrasse)

shipment arrived wee hours of the morning.

All above fishes listed came in sizable quantities especially the flasher, condei, punctatus and china wrasse.

have exquisite, many scotts, many laboutei, many red margin, regals, lutescens wrasse, fusilier anthias, many more.

12x hooded wrasses but all females. female hooded wrasses although not as beautiful and less desirable than the males, are extremely rare in the hobby. female hooded are almost never shipped in and for those wishing to keep a pair or a harem, getting a small group or pair of females will enable that.

vanatu regals are grey bellied regals rite?

Best Regards,

Morpheous

Should be grey belly. If not wrong yellow belly can be found only in north east of indonesia, Indian ocean and the Red sea. Correct me if I am wrong .

haha no i think the guy who bought the yellow belly regal got it from ahbeng from medan shipment.

now yellow bellies in singapore getting very uncommon and can only get from medan shipment. red sea stop supplying yellow belly liao.

vanuatu is in the pacific ocean so the regal angels are the pacific ocean morph, with grey belly.

no iwarna don't have joculator. it has a conspic angel which belongs to digiman and it's reserved. $1800.

Cirrhilabrus condei, the Conde's fairy wrasse, is a truly remarkable and unique species. Unlike other fairy wrasses, conde's fairy wrasse can adopt 2 different styles of flashing or displaying nuptial colouration.

the first method of displaying includes flaring of all fins, spread out, and colour changes from red to white, yellow and pink.

some authors claim that this form of flashing belongs to a different variation of conde's living in the Fijian region.

The second method of displaying includes clamping of all fins, but only flaring of front 2/3 of the dorsal fin. this gives the fish a very unique look. the body turns from red to entirely white.

some authors claim that this is the true form of flashing belonging to the true condei's fairy.

i beg to differ and i've seen conde's fairy displaying both form of nuptial colouration in one fish.

whatever it is, iwarna's condei are truly remarkable and are perpetually displaying to each other in the blue tubs today. the body is almost constantly yellow instead of red due to the incessant flashing.

For those looking for Queen and King... SL has a nos. of feeding ones. Queens are from previous shipment, very stable (size ranges from 3 to 7") and Kings juz came in few days and already feeding (size range from 2 to 5"). Got some very juv Emperor from previous shipment and it very very stable liao.

The juv Queens are so stable that when mine was caught stuck in between rocks for overnite, it was like so injured and seems going to die but it miraculously recovered and even feed off from my fingers after 2 days.

iwarna has a very very healthy venustus angel (Paracentropyge venustus).

It's feeding very aggressively on mysis shrimp. this angel is a very difficult fish to keep and one that is feeding so well has a higher chance of survival.

also a few bartlett anthias left going at 3 red notes each.
