With the warmer weather I see Gary Lange has been auctioning off some of his new collection on Aquabid. Unfortunately he will not, like many other breeders, including myself will not ship, even though it is legal, across the border. I am just going to post the links for now to the closed Aquabid auctions which will give you some information about them and how much they are going for now in the USA. This first one ... well there was a legend that someone many years ago had seen a red stripped praecox. Well Gary went looking for it and thought that he had been able to get some. After a week of struggling through the jungle he came back with 2 pairs of this fish that were about 1 inch in length. He had it DNA tested and funny it was not a praecox! MELANOTAENIA SP WAPOGA RED LASER This was the highest bid ever recorded for 6 young fish on Aquabid! Next ... well we have had the Chilatherina alleni "Siriwo" up here in Canada before however this one was collected from a different location. CHILATHERINA ALLENI WAPOGA RIVER The bid on Aquabid is not showing the picture. Think I have one that Gary has posted.. Did well on this auction as well for 6 unsexed young fish at $251.00 This one is not quite as new as the other 2 as it was collected in 2010. MELANOTAENIA SP DEKAI -- THE GOLDEN RAINBOW To my knowledge we don't have any in Canada yet. I nice little dwarf rainbowfish that should no exceed 3 inches. Another from an earlier collection -- still no avail in Canada. MELANOTAENIA SP ( LUBAN VILLAGE) I believe that there are a few more that will be entering the hobby here in North America this year. I will post more as they come. It appears to be almost 3 to 4 years before these new fish arrive here in Canada. Maybe sooner as Gary does have some talks planned for next year in the East. I think the newest one in Canada, which I have is from his 2008 collection from Pagai. It is the Chilatherina fasciata "Pagai Village" which I aquired last year and which I am breeding now.
