Idea of this thread is to share when we find odd and unusual fish in our local, or not so local LFS.
I’ll start, lovely looking fish labelled as Luciocephalus Aura:

Lovely Peppermints there @castle...damn you I'm supposed to be cutting down on fish and I've been after these for a while 😂
Take it they're in MA Notcutts?
I don’t know anything about fish - but how does a fish get named Robocop?!?My LFS the aquatic design center had "Robocop otocinclus" - Nannoptopoma sp. Robocop in very recently. Very pretty, but £20 each

I am told they’re not buying fish from locals anymore? I can’t confirm that though.
Newport Aquatics have some of these as well, and they are feeding.These are in Maidenhead inside Scottsdale’s Cambridge, one near great shelford. Honestly, it’s very rare for me to seriously consider buying a fish that isn’t on my ‘list’ and I almost left with them. However, I felt like they were a little thin.
They aren't. I was told it's because they need traceability of stock for their pet shop licence so can only get stock from proper suppliers. If that's correct then notcutts should be in the same predicament.
I've not been to any shop for 18 months plus but 14.99 for a ram is very shocking.
Lovely fish but couldn't justify another tank just for one and they're one of the species most prone to requiring dentistry.Auriglobus Silus, haven’t seen one of these in 15 years!
Hopefully whoever decides to buy them will have done their research first and decide not to take them up on their deal offer as they really don't play well with others,even their own kind.....I would say that's the cause of the fin damage in the one in the photos.My gut feeling was I’d have liked them all, and of course they have a deal where it’s 3 for 30£? (Ish) however everything I have read about these tells me to keep them alone.
