Peppermint Lionfish ?

[LionFishGuy]

I would like to add a peppermint Lionfish to fowler tank. The stores here in town CAN NOT GET THEM! They are out of jappenese waters so they are hard to get, anyone have any connections?

Never seen one, or even heard of one until you mentioned it. I would recomend just getting a different species.

Unless thats just what people at your lfs call them, iv never even heard of peppermint lionfish. Iv had afew different breeds in the past anddone alot of researxh on lions, and still never heard of that name. Might explain why you cant find one lol if you canfind a pic we can help with aproper id.

They are difficult to find they are out of jappenese waters( I swear I'm not crazy lol) I have talked to one of my places in town and when he talked to his supplier they said "IF" they could it would run about a grand
