search for Emperor Blue/Red Hook (aka EBH and ERH) or Myleus schomburgkii and you should find plenty of info here
I'm not aware of any recent imports, but there could be. I got mine at a small size last year (maybe 2 years ago, idk) and the biggest one is about 7 inches or so now. I don't have any pictures to share right now, though. They come up for sale here pretty often at larger sizes.

View attachment 712104They are pricey. Expect 40 dollars for a 4" fish.....more for larger. Here is a pic of my thin bar! Bad pic I know....She is about 5.5" now
I think I paid $35 when they were about 2 inches, maybe smaller. (mine are the wide bars)
guess there has been a recent import...http://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/f...nife-and-others.socal-p-u-or-ship.-(1-Viewing)

that a fair price for a rare fish, i see people asking hundreds for their. i guess at that price they mush be full grown adult or for a group of them. hey guys do your nibble and eat on your plants?
I dont keep real plants....The fake palm type leaves in my tank are covered with "kiss" marks from the SD eating algae. My largest is a 7"-8" red hook female....does not sound very big but it is! They would destroy a forest of plants. They almost never stop trying to eat!
Thats a thin bar not a wide bar. The ones in my avatar are the wide bars. They have red hooks. I paid $20 each over a year ago and now they've doubled in size.
I know they eat plants just never saw one munch on plant with my own eyes. Too bad I can keep my ferns and anubias with them.
