New juvenile hybrid clarion/passer found

[cortez marine]

Hi people,
Every year in Mexico we collect 3-4 passer/clarion hybrid angelfish but in 25 years down there have never found a small juvenile.
Well, we got one now!:beer:
He's 2 3/4 inches long...stout and sassy.
Note the short white stripe in place of a blue one....and the adjacent normal passers.

Wow that thing is incredible!

I would love to get my hands on that!

Very nice little fish..... I bet the adult colors are very interesting as well.

Certainly a rock solid fish from a long term care standpoint...... it should do well for whoever ends up with this beauty.

Steve - any chance of sending that bad boy to Colorado for companionship? :)

[rmougey]

Would that be for yours, mine or Jake's? :)

I hope mine or yours Rob :)

Wow, I've been watching all the new threads on these nice angels as of lately coming into the trade, but haven't really posted anything. But wow, that is one awesome looking fish.

And still we got another one...this time an adult.
It came in on the same shipment as we were collecting passers for export to Asia.
I am sorry to tell you that we are wholesale to the trade only and not open to the public.
With all the response I got...maybe I should open up retail!
Sincerely,
Steve Robinson

What am I missing... all those fish in the first photo look the same.

Steve,

Very nice adult pic. That broad orange tail and blue outline is very cool.

I'm sure a local retailer would be more than happy to bring one of these fish in for their customers.
