Show us your rare species pics

[nandor]

Would be interesting to see some pics of REALY rare species (fish/inverts/corals), including your experience with them. I am very excited about it ...

 

[nandor]

Not one single picture yet? I guess everybody is afraid to share the treasures...

 

[disc1]

Well, you said rare.

 

[nandor]

well thats right that happens if people take me litteraly
May I change to "not common" - reads better

hard for people to post stuff when you demand so much and dont contribute yourself

 

[AugustWest]

Looks like a Rhinopias.

 

[nandor]

Emu - you are absolutely correct. Sorry no pictures from my tank - not there yet

Lady - looks like Rhinopias frondosa. Very rare in stores it seems. Price 220 EURO (prox. 300 US)

 

[LadyOfIreland]

Yes, the store owner told me they are quite rare and quite expensive (and he was not to keen on sharing the expense of his particular fish )

I don't know too much about it, just fell in love with the mystery of it and begged for a picture Maybe someday I will have a tank I can keep one in - and the guts to spend hundreds of dollars on a fish!

Not sure how rare, but I have only seen 2 others.

A blue variant of C. Nox.

Here is a painful one -- lost this when I tried to introduce a Purple (( also a rare color morph )) S. Haddoni -- it had an "infection and took out this one.

 

[nandor]

[nandor]

sorry for your loss TODD - it had an awsome color

My red-mouthed, pink tipped elegance. There are certainly red-mouther elegances around, but not typically with pink tips.

 

[nandor]

[Matt Dean]

Sure! s long as you send me one too!:celeb1:

 

[Matt Dean]

Oh yes, my REVERS Strawberry Shortcake. Never seen one before I got a hold of it and no one I know has seen it either. So, I THINK it's uncommon:
