red sea bluestripes....

[MADtanks]

Ok so i am going through reefermadness bc i am trying to find some rare sps to buy for my tank and i notice a bluestripe pipe on their page which says very exotic pipe so i emailed them and they told me that is a red sea bluestripe pipefish, here is the catch it is about 80 bux!!! regular price on the bluestripes are about 19-30 dollars. i tried to search red sea bluestripe pipe but came up with nothing wondering if anyone thinks this is worth buying? here is the link the colors are amazing but looks more like the colors are enhanced a little with photochop. thank you all in advance.

I haven't seen on that color before. I would be suspicious of some photoshopping or fancy lighting. If it is real it may be worth it though.

yea i def would buy it if the colors were tru but it looks too much like the colors were enhanced somehow... i will email again and make sure it is not photo enhance which i am sure they wont say yes it is or no it isnt lol... thanks anyway.

btw nice heli!! i had a T-rex while i was in IRAQ def kept me busy always tweaking something be it the gyro or the radio in some way... and plenty of waiting for parts! but made time go by fast!! Specially 3D!!! got me in alot of trouble since i am no good i ended up building a carbon/aluminum T-rex that i only hovered for a few mikes b4 i shut it down bc i was too scared to break it again haha good times though,

Thanks

Rich.

That's not mine. It is Alan Szabo's. I got a picture of it at IRCHA. I wish I could fly 1/10th as good as he can.

Hi Rich,
It does appear that the colors have been enhanced a bit but the only way to know for certain , is to see the fish live, obviously.

Photos can be deceiving when it comes to color, whether done deliberately or not.

yea, i am going to pass on it only bc i already have some bluestripes and if i end up with another male i will probably kill myself taking the reef apart to catch one lol.... besides that the 60dollar diff!!! from the regular price of about 20bux lol.

thank you.
