What in Neptune's World?

Postby liquid » April 14th, 2007, 12:44 am

In this month's Advanced Aquarist's Online Magazine, we have a mystery fish seeking identification. Can you identify it?

It's funny...how this Blenny was soooo availible in any LFS durring the 80's and early 90's,...then for some reason almost dissapeared..and now is a "rarity"?

can anyone explain this one to me...I mean they were in EVERY marine fish store in the 80's...

it's readily available-it's the stores who aren't ordering them, methinks
