Righto, with the volume of catalphyllia now coming in the country it is questionable how much is aquacultured and how much is actually wild caught.

I am after single coloured catalaphyllia, pure red with yellow tips.

I used to have one but it succumed to the Cat infection a few years back and died.

Anyone actually seen them availible?

Hope you do not mind suk, I used a photo from when we went to ZSL.

You can see them on the left of the picture.

Thx all

Dejong have had these in before and there's a few retailers in the UK who get stock from Dejong, I've seen them at an LFS in Essex.

Am I correct in thinking they are aussie?

well thats the debate robbo, Im not 100% convinced they could be, they are more that likely indo but how many cats actually coming in are Aussie.

I would like one if they are no longer susceptible to the disease...

There's three that I know of in Essex, Swallow Aquatics is one retailer that get new stock every week from Dejong - I've PM'd you the details of the other two.

I am very well thanks mate, I won't set up any nano - it's all or nothing and I just don't have enough hours in the day at the moment - I will be back though, with a hole in the wall project :naughty:

Hope you're keeping well too, :D
