Does anyone know how hard it would be for me to get a hold of a puellus, doliatus or magnifiica (or something like that/sp?) foxface ? I've been looking for a foxface however dont want the common yellow vulpinus... JL said they only ever get that one and I havent had any luck with any of the other online canadian retailers... does anyone have any suggestions ? Are these fish very uncommon ? I really like the ones with the blue markings (puellus/doliatus)

thanks,
Nick.

S. puellis are not that uncommon, relatively speaking. I have never seen a S. magnifica though they are beautiful. It is just a matter of getting around to other retailers who have an interest in bringing in less common fish. I saw two Siganus virgatus in Edmonton recently - three months ago. If you are from Vancouver, ask Robert at King Ed's, Mike at Hidden Reef, or even Dale at Animal House Chilliwack.

Good Luck,

I'm actually way out in Fredericton, NB so ordering online is unfortunetly my only option.
