I didn't post it so I can't answer that but, considering that they came in 2 separate e-mails, that may be the case. Ask Ira.
I'll say this again; "utterly ridiculous" speculation.

I am just saying you showed 2 methods, to prove your point, and I simply pointed out, using your demonstration to make the post appear as it did, it would have required both methods of posting. From a person that is not technically adept, using varying methods, to the same end is strange.

Correct? I am not asking if that is how it was done, neither of us were there. But that pretty much sums it up, right?

Looking how a post appears is not speculation, it is fact. How it technically was done, is not speculation.

I am trying to understand, you guys have lots of "speculation" everything I have said is fact. I am not giving you what ifs, that is what you are providing.
 
Another example, for some perspective:
Months ago Ken Davis sold a bunch of MFK members, including myself, fish that he claimed to be Xanthic Jaguars. We got our fish at .25" for $25 a piece. I bought 4.

As time went on and the fry grew it became apparent that the fry were not parachromis. When Ken was contacted (in private, respectfully, through pm's) be released a public explanation.

He claimed that pink convict fry had contaminated his batch of jags leading him to believe that he had Xanthic jags.

He made a mistake, he owned it, and that was it. I continued to order from him afterwards and never blasted him on the forum let alone speculate about how his tanks were plumbed, what fish he kept in what tanks next to whom, and whether his explanation held water.
Nor did anybody else.

Your scrutiny has been over-indulged. Enough already.
 
I guess you are right, if you are happy, as the end users, so be it.

Remember knowledge is power, tough to be powerless.

I bought a male from Rapps. Only three spots remained when it hit the 10" mark. It looked like a regular Syns but I've seen adult pics with a lot of spots too.

And your all about power, huh "Big Man"!

While were using quotes, here's a simple one for you:
"Arrogance diminishes wisdom".

I'm sorry, I have been trying not to get into it with anyone here, but your arrogance is uncanny. You flaunt around on all boards like you are so much better than every one else, and honestly it's sickening. YOUR hobby only consist of what YOU deem standard. The bigger picture is that this hobby consist of everyone who enjoys it, whether it be the noob, the most knowledgeable, the hybrid enthusiast, the guppy breeder, the "fish keeper", the "fish buyer", the guy who goes on collection trips getting the rare fish, to the guy who just enjoys his lfs oscar. Knowledge is something that should be shared, not worn around your neck like a medal. For instance, the thread by Reagan showing his Pikes. Rather than bash the kid for asking the simple QUESTION "do you ever clean your tank", you could have educated him why it was that way, as others did. I guess educating doesn't constitute a part of your hobby.

Knowledge is power, but power is not alluring to pure minds :)

Rant done. :chillpill:
 
Yes, back on topic. Mods, please feel free to delete my last post, as it was out of context, and has nothing to do with vontehillo. I'm sorry, I guess I just let my emotions get the best of me.

Anyways, I am unsure of when they were first collected, but to my knowledge Ira does not have any full adult specimens. From what's been said, Rusty is supposed to be down there collecting now. Hopefully he can document, and possibly bring back some adult specimens.
