I'm curious to know how many Boesemani are out there in captivity. Not many as far as I've seen.

Haha thanks man!
There is a thread on my first collecting trip in 2013 somewhere on this forum.
I remember seeing this video last year-https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=q4KHq_QdRVQ
Nice seeing an update.
This is the video of my first trip indeed. Have some raw material of the latest trip but still have to edit into a nice video.
No pups uptil now but I will keep you guys posted
Thanks for the compliment, very much apreciated from you.
Gorgeous !!!!I used to think being Rare was more important then the Beauty of a fish ...I have since seen the light !!!!! I hope this hobby progresses into a hobby like Dogs for example It remains to be seen thooo.......
I would say these are extremely rare. Great collection. Well done. Good luck with the breeding program.
Rare? yes, at this point.
Beautiful? in the eye of the beholder, personally I would take a BD over these guys any day, though I can appreciate why people like them.
Worth the money? depends who you ask, if you like the fish that much it is worth the money, to some a fish will never be worth that amount even if it was made of gold.
Future in aquaria? no one knows, all speculation, and if you had a PHD in economics you probably wouldn't be trying to persuade people's opinions on an internet forum.
Just enjoy people, and compliment a fellow hobbyist in his passion for keeping these things.

Well that escalated quickly...
Anyways, Boesemani is out there and they are being sold by me and a bunch of other vendors. Most of them go to crazy breeding projects in Asia though. Boesemani is still rare and not readily available, like a dime in a dozen Leopoldi (which is still a beautiful species). As for the Snow Leopards, people who have the contacts can get wild caught as well.
To everybody who is nice about the Boesemani: Thank you. I will try to update every once in a while.

Ok- thread is cleaned up.. warnings issued... this is not the place to argue passed dealings and how rare something is... I wish I had them... good luck and keep us updated..
Was this referencing the thread that you two got into it about a pearl that had to be deleted last year?
Thanks for the thread link man, I'd never have found it.
Great read! What an expedition!
I think C cheon nailed it with this quote-
