C3E98A0B-2CED-4B07-B5BB-0E4065626B4D.jpeg I’ve been after this fish for a while and finally found some wild ones locally.

I picked up an adult in the pic below and will be getting some smaller ones next week. I am so stoked to see them color up!
 
Really funky shape on him, wonder if he took a bit of a head wound. Not what I've come to expect of a severum at all.

look closer... its the net lol...

Nice pickup Jay!

Good call completely missed it somehow. Fins all look in great shape, I bet he'll get showy real soon. I haven't been able to properly source these guys since the initial hype, so I'm a bit jealous.

The wetspot had some in, and I emailed to get a shipping quote, they took their time getting back to me and when they did they were gone.

I've seen enough flags related to the wetspot curare that I no longer consider them. Had a VERY similar less than ideal experience with them a couple years back. They will set aside fish in store for people who many never pick them up, makes buying groups of fish difficult.
