Has these been on sale ever? Comoensis looked very interesting and xiphias could be real tankbuster

Xiphias is a fish that I've always wanted, but will probably never have or even see. I'd be very, very impressed just to see a photo of a live one.If they are in the hobby anywhere I'd say your best bet is Japan. I've only seen the line drawing in Poll's book.
