Cobalt Blue

[ironmunki]

anyone ever heard of a channa called "cobalt blue"? i know, i know i hate common names too but a buddy of mine wants to get one from a lfs and they can't give him a scientific name or location of where the channa comes from. thought someone here could possibly ID it from that common name. and no, he couldn't send me a pic of the fish in question. thanks.

cheers col

thanks, col. in that case its not uber rare and not worth the price they are asking. especially if he can only get one.

As always,

in common names for channa ther MUST be the word "blue" in it

By this common name I would first think for pleurophtalma, they are cobalt blue.

Brucki, you know once you add the word "blue" in with snakehead you can double the price!
