Does anyone ever see them for sale or know the time of year they may come in at? Also what they might be priced like?

Just saw some pics of one and they are gorgeous!

As in Hoplias Intermedius BTW haha

I haven't seen them for sale in the US since I started becoming more interested in Hoplias species, but I have seen multiple pictures of them on other sites not in the US. Not sure if they have easier access to them outside of the US, or if they're just not being imported at the moment like lacerdae seem to be.
 
Same here man I honestly didn't know anything more then curu mala aimara lac and I ghazi existed until a few days ago haha Theres like at least 7 more, patana terres intermedius microcephalus microlepsi Australis brasiliensis

Imagine a wolf pack of one of each Hoplias specie... That tank would be a piranhas worst nightmare haha

I guess they come from where Curupria comes so they come in as "contaminants" with blacks, though I'd totally rather have inter then curu haha. Curus are great but looking at a few different pics of inters and you'll forget about em haha

That's next level fish stock lurking haha, also unfortunate, I wish people would get into breeding Hoplias more, we know malas can be bred why not any others
