Azuls usually have fully spotted faces and bodies when they are less than 7inches. This might be the "Galaxy" trait. Personally, I have never seen an Azul retain these spots after 9inches, cept for a bit on their tails and fins. Caveat Emptor 
yeah bro i get you there, usually sp. should be names where they are collected but i think galaxy is just a term to make it sound better.. but i wonder if they are really wc? i mean if your were given a choice between captive bred piquiti or sp galaxy, at almost the same price. what would you get?

i see.. yeah my friend has a bunch of sp brejinho de nazare and at 4-5 inches you wont see any place in the fish without spots.. but now at 7 inches, some spots are kind of disappearing... do you have some galaxies circling around singapore?
