Great answer!

Fits my situation, too, but my wish fish (right now) include
the original (Red pectoral) *E. annulatus* Monrovia and one I never seem 
to find, *Notho. (Aphyobranchius) janpapi*. The latter are a delightful 
smaller fish, sharing some of the charms of Epis, Aphyos and Nothos. Their 
upper-water semi-schooling behaviour even reminded me of some Lampeyes. 
Their wee tiny babies offer a nice husbandry challenge, too. Are they in 
the hobby?
