Ok, this is not pic of the actual fish but a similar fish taken off the net.... The actual Madeira mari-mari we have look almost exactly like this one!! :shock:

[Davo]

Kev,

Any idea of the price range for the Madeira Mari Mari, Nhamunda reds and the Pineapple heckels??

Also any chance of importing Nhamunda Blues like this one?

[kevkoi]

That must be the most widely circulated Nhamunda blue picture on the net!! :lol: Everytime that pic gets thrown up....

Sorry to say, so far I've never seen one looking THAT GOOD!

This link show more like what they really are.... a rather dull brown.

Oh, and one more thing... let's take it slowly and not jump to the deep end of the wild discus pit. :lol:

Don't ask for the Curiperas unless u know how much they cost.... The US$ figure I see on them worries me. ALOT! :lol:

The ones we're bringing in are at least 'affordable'.

[Davo]

Kev,

We can still dream. Well what about this one, it looks very much like a curipera but I am not 100% sure.

Davo - here is a young fish from a batch I got in from Turkis aquarium in Manaus. It is supposedly a curipera but I'm not sure either

[kevkoi]

Nice fish Squid..... Can't say for sure either way, but hey, nice looking young fish. :wink: The Alenquer complex are so hard to tell apart... :?

And Davo, yes that's a pic of a Curipera in Japan. Errrm, did u see the price tag on that one?! :shock:

[Davo]

Kev,

I just picked myself up off the floor. After I win the powerball tonight can you order a dozen or two for me.

Dave.
