Thank you Peter, I’ll be keeping an eye on them for sure.
My concern is that if the shipping community hears that they are Filamentosis, the 2 forms could possibly become mixed together, by the locals who catch the fish and the shippers. That would cause a possible disaster in keeping the newly discovered fish pure. The females may be quite difficult if not nearly impossible to tell apart.
Even the possibility of the new form being a hybrid exists because of overfishing and loss of habitat?
Those who currently have the spec. Ampah should keep them guarded, as I’m sure Paros Project members will.
