Blue Festae???

[Stramn]

anyone ever seen a blue color morph festae??? I saw a pair at the LFS today, and couldn't get a pic. But never heard of such a thing before.

Traditionally festae males were green ... under actinic lights they might appear blue. That's about the only thing I can think of.

I have a green male... never heard of a blue festae. Too bad you couldn't get pics!

idk. the lights were standard t8 bulb warm white, the fish seemed blue not green. the owner showed me a book with them in it labeled as Nandopsis Festae "blue" collected from Ecuador

My experience has shown that they get that offset bluegreen flower on the base of the tail. I am not sure if these are pure festae but I picked up some at the LFS like the one pictured. Males tend to look blue-green.

I've seen varying degrees of blueish/greenish hues on the few I've kept, but have never seen or heard of a "blue morph". Sounds like LFS marketing to me.

I'd love to see a pic of them. I'd also like to know the name of the book they showed you.

Sounds like an LFS trying to sell some fish.
