Monty,

I was actually one of the people bidding on them.  Maybe Fp. mirabilis is a
case of an easy fish being available everywhere then disappearing because
they are easy? Not the population you have in particular, as it doesn't ring
a bell with me, but with mirabilis in general.  

Keep 'em breeding!

Keith

  Hi Keith,

  You asked about mirabiles in the hobby. 
  I recently started raising Fp. mirabile
  moensis Bator. Is shows very poorly in
  a bag, but in a planted tank it is stunning!
  I am raising it in a heavily planted tank of
  java moss and a few floating plants. I get
  lots of fry, but a preponderence of females.

  I sent two very young pairs to the Wisconsin
  show and I was surprised when both pairs brought
  more than $30 per pair. Obviously someone
  appreciates them and knows they look georgeous
  in a tank!

  I hope to have more pairs for sale in the 
  2008 convention fishroom!

                 Best Regards,

                Monty Lehmann
