nope....i think they are simply lying because water level is low....

 

[auem]

I wonder it those were caught by Rufus and his friends....

 

[rachenbrazil]

I hope that Coops tell us the full story soon ...

I heard from koji san a few minutes ago...they were sold for $20,000 each and 1 was being kept to treat...incredible video...glad you posted...I just found this thread...ignore my post...

Hopefully in a few years one might even make it to the us. Better yet hopefully a Pair make it to Hawaii.

a pair to rct would be ideal...

Eventually that will happen.

what's the fish in second video...?

also what they meant by put to 'sleep'(as said in a website)....?

 

[lebreef]

I believe its Cirrhilabrus claire, if I am not mistaken.

 

[CharlieBB]

Those narcosis look just as impressive, any idea how much they are going for?

 

[coralreefdoc]

Cirrhilabrus claire, indeed ...

Another Genus' holy grail has been collected ! Very exciting times in rare/deepwater fish collection !
