Cool Fish on Diver's Den

[pfan151]

I don't think this is actually a Stonogobiops dracula:

1-3/8" Maldivian Dracula Goby

This is how the real deal looks like:

But it is also not a Stonogobiops nematodes:

In fact it is a much rarer fish - Stonogobiops xanthorhinica:

(http://www.fishbase.org/summary/4311)

Looks like they have legit Dracula's up today if you are looking.

Could be, but the person could have cancelled the order on the fish and they just relisted the fish. Seems odd though that two people cancelled

Pretty crazy DD update. peppermint angel, feminus wrasse, Pitcairn angel, maze angel, and a few other pretty cool fish.

They listed the peppermint already??

That is wild, how much did LA want for the peppermint? Anyone got a screenshot of the listing?

I was the buyer

So did they hand deliver the fish or send it though UPS? I would hate to have a UPS driver toss it around.

 

[hedgedrew]

Special delivery for organs. To my house I took the anthias too. Pairing up with my peppermint ! Going to try for some eggs. !!

 

[OrionN]

It take a lot of money, passion and crazy to buy something like this, buying the Pepermint Angel. Hat off to you. Hope you enjoy him for a long time.

 

[hedgedrew]

Thank you. Ill post when the two are together

That would make a lot of sense. If you got babies out of this your investment will more than pay off and a great benefit for the reefing world.

. We will see. This one is very young still

Drew, if you ever get eggs from the Pepps, you need to fly in Karen B. from Hawaii and have her try to raise the eggs! Good luck to you and congrats!

 

[hedgedrew]

Interesting.. Maybe it is a generic picture they put up for this fish when it is sold?

I believe I have seen this picture several times myself before.

Why would they change the picture after the fish sold? And they don't do that for others.

I also have a hard time believing that these listings were for the same pair and that it was cancelled twice and then relisted twice under 3 different item numbers.

What's more likely is that someone at DD decided to use this picture when they can't get good shots of the actual fish.
