Nice fish. I'm trying to find 3-5 here in the US but no luck so far.

Don't really seem that hard to find, just gotta know where to look for them! LoL! Gorgeous hamplas! They do get large, and quick! Full of spunk too! Love them!

 

[shookONES]

Not to derail...but any idea where I can start looking?

I got mine lislabeled as a clown barb, but otherwise havent seen them around.
Feed pretty agressively.

they are awesome fish... i have them in the tank behind my computer right now... they r so energetic they really liven up a tank...
they do feed aggressively and they r hard to find. I just got lucky...
H. dispar apparently is much more aggressive though and aprently will kill eachother :S

I cant wait till they get beastily huge
