I was just going to post this!

At least this one is attractive looking IMO.

from the link "...is off-limits to any kind of collection since 1982" and "These are offsprings from a collection trip..."

So the parents were hot?

They probably originated from an Australian hobbyist who collected them legally in 2006. I remember reading about his attempt but I can't find the URL at the moment.

$5500 would buy a years supply of stuff, or a very nice skimmer and light!!!! Ok maybe if we were rich

I bet these are offspring from one of the US companies. I think Drs Forester and Smith maybe were breeding a pair of offspring that they got from the Australian pair.
