fishguts Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Don't be so sure about the rare species thing.I was once sold geo argyristictus aripuns as rio areos.Thats how they became available in NSW.I shipped em over from Perth from a young guy.I have no Idea were he got em from.He also sent me over what he said were BAHIA REDS which turned out to bea particularly red bunch of brasiliensis. They could have been Iporongensis.They were all females from memory...so it was difficult to get a good ID. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
