woohoo i am gettn a wild caught ecuador male festae 8" i think looks just like baltons

My fascination with festae (I know, I know, my name gave it away) dates back to late 70's/early 80's. I have had a very blue female, an "incomplete bar" female" where the bar starts but does not finish and others. This fish is literally responsible for getting me into the organized hobby, which then morphed into my getting into the aquarium/pet trade. I don't know if this is what you are making reference to, but the female from the below link is the best I've ever seen. There is an absence of the first bar, but it is not "incomplete"....just overwhelmed by fire red/orange! Incredible! I messaged the guy, but never received a reply. If anyone knows where I can get some fry from this pair, I'd be most appreciative and interested.
