Looking to find a male Boesemani

[Thekid]

These things are bloody gorgeous!! Are they like flowers in terms of feeding and Breeding?

From what I've read they're hardy and are relatively easy to keep other than ponying up the cash and finding one.

I feel like bigger suppliers like Jeff rapps or Ichiban will get their hands on some and slowly but shurely they'll be easily accessable. Kind of like C.Intermedia. While they are not flooding the market, suppliers wanted 100s for just one small fish and I've seen a few that are being sold fir under $100.

It's going to be a long time before the price drops. The supply is extremely low, and the demand is extremely high.

People in Asia are breeding them..Mark Huveneers has them,Belowwater is selling them,Center for stingray biology has or had them so sooner then later there will be more available and price will reflect it. Not many fish stay rare for long if someone knows they can make a buck or two.

Example...Tiger silver dollars,African tiger scats,cichla intermedia just to name a few. All about supply ,demand and the almighty $$$$.
