Post by PsYcHoTiC_MaDmAn »

reason I ask is Jeff Rapps has "wild caught" L46 in.

Hypancistus zebra 2” $275.00 L 46 – yes, the ultimate small Hyp. species-wild ‘Imperial Zebra’ plecos!
I've not heard anything on those export laws being changed, and nothing came up via google. But then I wouldn't expect Rapps to put false claims up there.

though still well out of my price range.

Though i don't know for sure, i suspect the laws haven't changed & the fish are genuine but being exported via a different country than Brazil. There has been a lot of discussion in the forums on wild caught L No's still being available & how it is happening.
