Has any one seen these fish before?...or kept them.

my LFS got a large group in and they are not moving very fast..I did a little research and have been stewing on them for months.

when i walked in yesterday i had to get a few..two for now maybe more to come when i up grade my 65 to a 90.

they are schooling nicely with my Madagascar rainbows, and maccullochi rainbow!..

here are a few pics..they are fast and hard to get clear shots of but they are such pretty fish!.

the mail has bright orange markings on his body and fins..just like my Madagascar males and the female yomas have white..just like the Madagascar females^_^

they look allot like little colorful trout to me ..they max out about 3 -3 1/2 inches.

thank you I'm very excited about this little fish even if most people here are not..they only came in to the hobby in 05..never heard of them until a few months back when my LFS got about 20 of them...soon as i can get an upgrade for the 65 ill be picking up more!
