Hmm that's interesting because John also has tapajos II Cobras which also have been banned from export for awhile too so maybe he got the whole shipment in together?!?!?

Here is the Trombeta. Got it back in "07". Dont know about Tapajos II. Just know that Trombs are banned, from Rapps.

Very very nice shadow, I like its marbling a lot.
A list of fish got banned from export. Cobras and Xingu 1 too. I'd pay good money for a female X1 I see you had one back in the day. Took me years to finally find a male but I don't think I'll ever find a female. For at least another few years

I remember back in the 90s and early to mid 2000s my lfs would get X1s in couple times a year. At least 30-40 at a time. For 19.99 ea at that.

Snook21 was selling trombetas on aquabid about 2 months ago. I emailed him about it but never responded.

Yep he still has them since this summer but he just doesnt put them up on aquabid anymore. Probably because some people out there thought he was selling vennies and didn't buy any lol

They do look cool he has a single Juvie tapajos II although it looks a little tapajos I maybe but tbh I don't know. He has the trombetas marms which lulu got from him, and he has atabapo I. The marms he has he says are still around 5-6 inches.
