a question about Thorichthys SPECIES

[cornbread_5]

I really am interested in the different types of Thorichthys, I am not sure how many type of these they are , i was just curious which one is the most colorful and beautiful.

I think there are about 8 differant species, with at least two (aureus and sp mixetico) having differant color forms.

I always found Thorichthys pasionis the prettiest, the black and yellow just stand out.

Pasionis are nice, as well as illusionis and a few others that are as yet undescribed.

Robertsoni IMO are pretty damn sweet fish. TONS of blue and look great. Rapps has a beautiful Orange and Blue one right now that is full grown well just about for ONLY $50!
