I picked-up 3 specimens from Hong Kong last Wed and one of them is holding while they are still under observation and quarantine.

btw, are they P. filinemus or P. typus ?

here is the dorsal view

They are P.typus because of the leafy bit at the end of the barbel, the other Phylonemus do not have this.

4-5 weeks, they are are simple to raise if stripped from the parents in the later weeks if you really need to.

Anyone know a good source for a few of these guys in the US? Wetspot only has 1.
